Yellow Note was the drum'n'bass alias of composer/producer David Barratt. After issuing a handful of 12" releases as well as compilation appearances, he released his full-length debut We Are Not the Beatles in 1998. Yellow Note vs. the Daleks followed a year later. He then changed labels and direction with the more electronica flavoured "We Love Everybody... Your Next". His piece "Karito" was exhibited at The UN General Assembly in 2008. Karito is an audio sculpture made from interpretations of the 192 national anthems of the member states of the United Nations layered upon one another and projected simultaneously from multiple sound sources. A two hour stereo mix of the piece was released under the name David Barratt/Yellow Note in July 2023. The individual anthems work together to create a greater whole. Occasional dissonances do occur, but invariably time passes and something harmonically beautiful and surprising takes place a few bars later. This musical structure, of bringing individual parts together as a new whole being experienced from different perspectives, echoes what I believe to be at the core of any human interaction. KARITO is the Esperanto word meaning love of one’s neighbour.
