The new album of Swiss artist @martina-lussi joins what no longer is conjoined. Conceived and realized over a period marked by changes in both the private sphere and the world at large, none of which were thinkable before, Balance brings together the before and after. “Fragments of Attention” is the fulcrum of the album: it separates the first half, written before Covid, from the second, composed during the lockdown. The six-minute track serves as a rupture and bridge between a career at its by no means definitive apex and a new uncertainty in various aspects of life.

In spite of the division, Balance is held together by a common feature: Lussi’s voice, with which every composition began. Her singing, modified by effects, is supplemented by other sounds, which are light at times, bittersweet at others, and sometimes replace her voice altogether. Lussi’s singing plunges “Meditation on the Multitab” on the first half of the album into a cosmic soundscape; occasionally a rhythm irrupts into it. On “Time Lapse,” a track from the second half, the artist’s singsong articulates rhythmical elements and propels them towards a reluctant euphoria.

As an album, Balance appears open and fragile, at times even vulnerable, but Lussi’s relentless openness derives from the immense strength needed to weather changes both small and large.

Following the album’s production, the artist had Balance translated visually and olfactorily. The Amsterdam-based perfumer Niklaus Mettler concocted a scent based on the album, which accompanies the release. The artwork, into which the scent is integrated, was designed by the Zurich-based graphic designer Dorothee Dähler.

Guest Mix by Oldyungmayn w/ Marwa Belhaj Youssef - 4 November 2021

Gjoll - № 25

This compilation is a sonic insight into the community formed around the Alkisah festival, spinning further outside of the Alkisah framework by seeking resonant sounds released by the network of labels after the Alkisah release and festival took place. This sonic journey is built on raw and harsh authenticity, improvisation, off-grid music, heavy bass, and ritualistic chants. The beast of Alkisah itself, gentle and mighty, wavelessly rests in its nest.

1. Bad Tracking - Harmony
2. Bios Contrast - Anahata
3. Senyawa - Kiamat (Bagvs Remix) [Disaster Records]
3. Diana Miron - This Enterprise Will One Day End [Orgone Dealers]

The next thing I knew, I was "exiting"
But it felt like my presence there had been a return
Without ever any away

Outside we had all already been 
Thrush eggs
