Their justly-titled, Mercury-nominated album Diamond Mine announced Fence Collective heid yin King Creosote, aka Kenny Anderson, and dance/electronica artist Jon Hopkins as one of 2011's dream-team pairings, sending critics into unanimous raptures. Seven years in the making, it features an array of gems delved from Anderson's 20-year archive, tumbled and polished with freshly-recorded vocals, found sounds and digital manipulation, to create - in Anderson's words - "a near-classical suite of emotion ranging from cracked despair to patched-up euphoria."
