These are excerpts from the audio that I made for the Istituto Svizzero showing of Tomaso de Luca's video installation "A Week's Notice". It's a reinterpretation of the initial foley and interstitial music that I recorded in 2020 for the original MUSEO MAXXI exhibition.

As a child, Aggy liked to steal their parents’ phones and send texts to random numbers. The messages Aggy sent were kindhearted and peculiar. Sometimes, Aggy would text complex questions of a spiritual nature. Kids’ radical lack of filters is what makes them wise, but also very annoying, is what the parents repeatedly agreed whenever Aggy did this. The strangers’ replies, which always arrived after the parents had their phones back, were usually bemused, and rarely, but sometimes, they were belligerent. Disciplining Aggy for this behavior wasn’t simple.

“Aggy, honey, you can’t keep doing this,” said one of the parents. “We know you’re not being mean, but it could be dangerous, talking to strangers like this.”

“No phone for a week,” the other said.

Aggy took these haranguings gracefully. As the verdict was read out a subversive crack appeared at the edges of Aggy’s mouth. Once communicated, Aggy accepted these punishments with a tiny but steadfast stoicism.

A young adult now, Aggy was on a bus to a faraway place.... [FULL STORY AVAILABLE AT: https://enmossed.bandcamp.com/album/walking-mix]

broadcasted february 14th 2021 8-9pm
nyc / montreal
info+tracklist: <http://www.movement.radio/podcasts/Cute-af>

ura is entertainment for the enteric and libidinal, heads foregone. a contemplative study of texture that unfolds and resolves at its own pace. ura stands for unsigned recording artist.
sub sonics, sludge-ness and front left atmospheric soundtrack your tsunami-ravaged beach bar cocktails / cloudy sunbathing / lounge of a dystopian future.
tripping not dipping. rays of sun break through clouds.

don’t forget to call your loved ones.

“current and always” from @perila
https://perilazone.bandcamp.com/album/current-and-always
raw mood loops to process in honest inner plunge
nothing is eva the same

what we can change
can we change now
why waiting
she asked this before
no answer means answer
get it your way
but stay connected
every day as a piece of noise
which soothes
settle unrest
ruin pile
closer to together
now or never
now or never
we can

perila – subtle dynamics

Living Room n°45 ~ @irlhuman


q. pls introduce yourself

I'm IRL (a. harvey.) I’m a sound artist and independent scholar based in Tiohtià:ke/Montreal.

q. is there a story behind the mix? how did it come together?

This mix was recorded during a late September sunset, in my studio in the Chabanel district. I always record my mixes live, meaning they’re mostly improvised. Generally, I work with a bank of songs I’m feeling and go from there. This one attempts to mimic the last dregs of summer: balmy late night thoughts, old memories bubbling up. 

q. in your opinion, what would be the ideal circumstances to enjoy your mix?

In a quiet, comfortable space. During a slow burn, orange sunset. Maybe close to the earth, close to nature, close to water. 

q. describe a favourite object in your living room…

A candelabra that a brilliant ceramicist/friend [Diane Garcia Ramos] made. It was recently broken by a houseguest, so where it used to hold 3 candles, it now holds 2. It’s a sacred object, I still love it dearly even damaged. 

q. are you working on any projects right now (music or not music)?

So many! I’m working on a podcast about sound/healing, set to come out in the spring of 2023. Also, two sound installations, another mix for my fav MTL label, a track for a special comp, grad school applications, and an LP. My work brings me so much joy <3
