- Roll The Dice's Malcolm Pardon is releasing his debut solo album, Hello Death, through The New Black on April 16th. The Swedish-Scottish artist has written straight piano compositions for the LP, which the press release calls "a personal exploration of our relationship with mortality." Peder Mannerfelt, the other half of Roll The Dice, and Pär Grindvik (as Aasthma) assisted with production. "You get to a certain age where you know you have less time left than time you have spent on earth," said Pardon. "People are born and pass away in your surroundings and you always have this unspoken relationship with the end. Once, as a kid, I had the experience of falling into water and slowly sinking, but not realizing the danger, I remember that it was peaceful and quiet rather than threatening and scary." Pardon is known for his work outside of the Roll The Dice project, having composed for TV and film. He co-scored Chernobyl director Johan Renck's The Last Panthers series and has provided additional music for Hollywood films, including 2014's Edge Of Tomorrow.
