My Brightest Diamond, "Pressure"
from the LP "This Is My Hand" 
Available on CD /Vinyl / Digital 
September 16, 2014
from Asthmatic Kitty Records.

Lyrics:
mountain on top a fire below 
the pressure grows pressure
I feel the weight of a billion years 
come down on me come down
I tried to do it all right I went down down down
workin' hard little delight I forgot the sound of
diamonds

so bright I cannot hide 'em
so heavy I cannot mine 'em
all of this pressure's makin' diamonds
so wild I cannot tame 'em
so shiny I cannot name 'em
all of this pressure's makin' diamonds
disperse the white light

dancing on top the glitter glow
the pressure slows pressure
I feel the blade the cutting edge move out out out
I tried to do it all right I went down down down
workin' hard little delight I forgot the sound of
diamonds

pink purple green red yellow blue
I am in that mood indigo
pink purple green red yellow blue
I am in that mood for diamonds

My Brightest Diamond, "Pressure"

Reincarnated/R-Rated

The Matrimony Remixes takes Julianna Barwick’s acclaimed early 2011 release, The Magic Place, and puts two of its tracks into the hands of good friends. Previously having crossed paths with Julianna while both working on remixes of Radiohead’s “Reckoner,” Philadelphia-based Diplo teams up with producer Lunice to provide some deep sea beats to “Vow.” Brooklyn neighbor to Barwick, “dear friend,” and label-mate Roberto Lange takes “Vow” into the inner space of clouds. Long-time Barwick friend Bryan Doring of Alias Pail drumbreaks “Prizewinning.” Brooklyn/Boston-based sisters of the cosmos Prince Rama closes out the EP by escorting the same song into an aural Eden.

"The Storm" is the new single from the Finnish-Swedish pop duo Pepe Deluxé. Featuring a choir, a harp, a modular synthesizer, a Fisher Price –style drum kit played by Finland's most respected jazz drummer and a full orchestra, "The Storm" sounds like the theme from “Thunderbirds” meets a Samurai playing surf music.

Fol Chen has joined forces with Monome and Machine Project to bring you the Tetrafol.

The Tetrafol is a hand-held tangible electronic sound toy. Circuits enclosed by a wooden tetrahedron detect orientation and motion-gestures to modify the playback of a collection of Fol Chen's micro-compositions, allowing the user to explore sound through physical manipulation.

The battery-powered device has its own internal speaker but can additionally be hooked up to a headphone or amplifier.

The circuit and firmware are based on open-source hardware and is itself published as open-source, allowing anyone interested to learn about its deepest inner-workings.

Asthmatic Kitty Records is an independent record label that was co-founded by Lowell Brams and his stepson, singer-songwriter Sufjan Stevens, in 1999. Since its founding, AKR has released albums by a variety of artists, including Lily & Madeleine, My Brightest Diamond and Helado Negro, and is currently home to Sufjan Stevens, Angelo De Augustine, Denison Witmer and The Welcome Wagon. 

Asthmatic Kitty was named after Sara, an orange and white tabby who wandered out of the woods pregnant and starving near Holland, Michigan in 1994. For fourteen years she brought joy as a beloved friend to Lowell, enjoying a happy life despite her initial hardships. Her asthma improved after moving west to New Mexico and Wyoming, where she lived out her days as an asthmatic kitty in name only.
