Immunity is a confident, dramatic record defined by an acute sense of physicality and place. It feels like the hypnotic accompaniment to a journey of creativity, a trip inside Hopkins' mind, using analog synthesis alongside manipulations of physical, real-world sounds to make dance music that feels as natural and unforced as possible.
The LP comes after three solo records as well as album-length collaborations with Brian Eno and King Creosote for the UK composer and producer. In addition to his own material, he's worked with acts like Coldplay, Imogen Heap and others, and scored several films, finding favour with his melancholic melodies.

One of the best records this year, so far. Looking back, he’s really evolved.
