Listen to "Mourners Whirl" by Lau Andersson taken from "The Weeping Siege" out on 10th May via Rhizome

Pre-order: https://rhz000.bandcamp.com/album/the-weeping-siege

Lau Andersson’s debut album, The Weeping Siege, is accompanied by a visual side made by Lau and is a sonic walk where the listener is taken by their hand through known and unknown landscapes. 

Repetitive choir pieces, melodic cellos and fragmented rhythms leaves the listener at a place where language does not seem to reach - a place where language becomes sound, and where meaning is not meaning. From this place you can be without words.

The album makes references to Lyra Pramuk’s alluring vocal use, Arca’s experimental beats and Caterina Barbieri’s harmonic drones. Threads from these artists are bound together by Lau in a hymn which sings today. Lau further draws inspiration from artists such as Maria Horn and Sara Parkman’s album Funeral Folk and the record label XKatedral.

On the album, apart from long passages without words, there’s presented poetic sentences like: “Thee reeds are grieving, With mouths full of greed, Here I shall plant my seed, Behold, o weeping reeds, Only you reach the sea, My mother is the sea, My father the earth”. These small breaks into a lyric universe gives the listener space to think and gives room for the great, which is found in nature.

Lau about the album: “Many of the sketches for the different pieces were recorded with my phone while I was hiking in Georgia and Northern Italy in the summer 2023. The bare, beautiful landscapes and mountains, and the walk with sheep and cows made singing and hymns a natural communication with the elements which have no language.”

Lau Andersson is a Copenhagen-based sound and visual artist. Lau has until now founded the experimental visual animation duo Orgaphine, which has made music videos for for example the Xuri track Kali’s Dance, the ioulus album oddkin and Alto Aria I’ll Be Fine. Lau is educated as an electronic composer from The Copenhagen Conservatory of Copenhagen and has earlier released music under the name Raquin, an album released on Janushoved named Dance Of The Peacock.

Rhizome is a Copenhagen-based label started in 2020 by Aria Leth Schütze and Mads Krue Bugge. The label works with experimental music and alternative release formats and has released music from artists such as Alto Aria, Skarv, ioulus, Swell, Polly, Nemo, Laenz, Ida Urd, ill, Irmgard and Ingri Høyland as well as the compilation albums bag/belly/box and Hypersea. Rhizome has presented music at Øen, Alice, Mayhem, and Christianshavns Beboerhus in Copenhagen and Fitzroy in Berlin.

Captive

In our new installment of our CD series we have the pleasure of featuring two fantastic duos that have surprised us with the originality of their compositions and their quality.

With two different approaches to composing, Process Salad develops an intense and restless sound collage based on computer-based MIDI feedback patches, live drums, samples stretching with C_C volca sample and stereo effect pedals, axoloti patches with a LOM microphone and field recordings

pä's very fresh and systematic approach opts for live electronics using nothing more than a haunting neural synthesis circuit, a randomizer (tempo/pitch), a sine wave through a double pulse delay in infinite mode, which generates patterns/rhythms that progressively degrade, collapse and generate new patterns.

Both compositions are also very organic and crisp.

We are thrilled with this release because it opens up a huge palette of new sounds and colours that we have never had before, we can only say thank you for the great imagination and effort that these two duos have put into this release, I hope you all enjoy it.
