With 𝑽𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑨𝒄𝒕, exael’s offering to the ENXPL series, the artist furthers their exploration of what they refer to as “the jester’s gaze”, wherein a variable array of emotions of the fool are less than obvious to decode. In this emotively charged interzonal reflection point, exael probes these psychedelic anxieties through eight varying tracks of accomplished electronic music production. Excavating the root role of the jester and it’s cosmic objecthood, exael takes on a synchronous identity; human and computer, jester and virus, superimposed. Far from a glistening ambient escapism, or sentimental shoegaze meditations, or obligatory club tropes, exael has created a sonic terrain unique to their own narrative and positionality as an artist. Side A of 𝑽𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑨𝒄𝒕 showcases exael’s comfort in fast tempo constructions, while the B side offers slower tempoed ventures with guest vocal duties by writer Zoe Darsee moving between trip-hop and industrial affectations.

exael is an alias of Naemi, an artist residing in Berlin. Their work under this moniker aims to upend elements of divergent sonic aesthetics and musical styles, reassembling them with the intent to create diffuse, mulitfunctional contexts. Utilizing exael as an avatar, Naemi attempts to access a collective subconscious via their own, externally processing the sounds and images that permeate contemporary life. Thus, highlighting the ways in which people merge and re-combine with culture on a molecular level as a result of this near-constant immersion. They present stimulating, lysergic sounds in an organic and explorative manner instead of the sometimes exhausting vibe of highly-calculated, experimental club music.

Florian TM Zeisig returns to enmossed with an LP of new material, 𝑴𝒐𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒅 𝑪𝒂𝒑𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆 𝑶𝒇 𝑩𝒆𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑶𝒃𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒂𝒏𝒕 under a new moniker, Angel R. On this latest sonic offering, Angel R arranges the recordings with an undertone of hope, letting the aural dramaturgy unfold sans forced melancholia typical of the genres contemporary cliches. Zeisig’s signature attention to the circular gravity of the loop is again showcased, but Angel R takes the dynamic to another plane for 𝑴𝒐𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒅 𝑪𝒂𝒑𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆 𝑶𝒇 𝑩𝒆𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑶𝒃𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒂𝒏𝒕 and allows for a swaying and staggered syncopation through choice album selections.

Filtered samples bounce off each other as they rain atop muted synth pads. Familiar sounds of nature become redefined through bit reduction, where grain illuminates new beauty in the re-examination of the sources. Angel R uses delay as a method of recall and deterioration, at once creating the new and delineating the end of the passages provided. At times reserved, at other moments bold and declarative, the album takes on the gamut of emotive signals to take the listeners through a narrative of complexity.

A product of runoff.

A molten sound in the alluvial scrub. Years behind the causal stream of things, boulder tumbled into aggregate, molded to silo. 

Idling off-road in the watershed. Loving this valley’s gradient, of night’s slow turn to day, the cascade of someone else’s season into ours. What a little water can pour life into, making music out of this arid basin.

@karisa-correa - 'cold metal, heavy mind' is part of Gravity Pleasure's inaugural release, Water Bodies: a rippling compilation of FLINTA* artists and collaborators that invites listeners into an aqueous paraworld.

Across 21 tracks, Water Bodies spans a post-genre miasma of ethereal mermaid music, cathartic flows, and glistening sibilants ~ each one an exquisite message-in-a-bottle of deep diving emotionality. Pulling from a wide-range of musical perspectives ~ field recording, lovesick ballads, shimmering downtempo, post-party comedown, and percolating ambient ~ the compilation contains multitudes yet maintains deep sentimental coherence. Like a wave crashing in slow motion, it sonifies possible ways of being, insisting on the porous, the interdependent, and the deep and unruly. Water Bodies reminds us that home is a body made of water, to which we all belong.

~~*~~

Home is a body made of water.
Remember.

Close eyes.
Listen to drips; hear voices.
What do they tell you?
Make your body a grotto.
What does it hold?

Spider’s tapestry: flycatcher.
Roadmap: net of sinews.
Lost in night forest: seek breadcrumbs.
Remember?
Body is lighthouse: shine through cloud canopy.
Body is fish: wet is all you know.

Sink deep, fly high,
stretch your arpeggio from young to old.
Remember.
