Vek released his second album, Leisure Seizure, in 2011 after a six-year absence from the music industry. The first single from the album, "A Chore", had its Radio 1 debut on Zane Lowe's show on 18 April that year. In 2012, his song "Aroused" from the album was featured on the soundtrack of Forza Horizon. Also in 2011, he was guest vocalist on the album track, and single, "Warning Call", on DJ Shadow's The Less You Know, the Better
As reflected in the title of his second album, Leisure Seizure, Tom Vek took his time following up his acclaimed debut We Have Sound. Five years, to be exact. The way he spent that half-decade wasn’t exactly lackadaisical, though: he took three years to build his own East London studio and teaching himself different production techniques, and another two writing the songs that became this album. Vek's new digs are a big step up from the digital eight-track on which he recorded We Have Sound, and this is reflected in the more expansive, polished sound throughout Leisure Seizure.
And new album ‘Leisure Seizure’ has also been tirelessly made and remade over the course of five years. And with those two tracks, Tom Vek’s illusive second album snowballed to completion. The thing is, it’s not out until June 6th, which leaves plenty of time for hype to do its danger thing. What people will no doubt say is that ‘Leisure Seizure’ is astounding, and precisely because it’s neither a grand, panicked departure from Vek’s cut’n’paste dance loops of ‘We Have Sound’ nor a twelve-song rehash of ‘I Ain’t Saying My Goodbyes’.
