The tracks 105 – 107 were prepared by me and refined by Head Joint.
The tracks 108 – 110 were prepared by Head Joint and refined by me.

Listeners familiar with Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith's previous album Euclid (an album that prompted Dazed to call her "…one of the most pioneering musicians in the world.") will no doubt notice her heavier use of vocals on her new album EARS.  On all but one song, her gently ecstatic swells of vocals emerge to soar over a dense jungle of synths and woodwinds.

After initially composing on a Buchla analog synth, she wrote arrangements for a woodwind quintet, added vocals, and further refined the pieces with granular synthesis techniques she developed in her sound design work (she contributed sound design to Panda Bear's "Boys Latin" video, and handled sound design and original compositions for Brasilia co-written by and starring Reggie Watts).   

Kinetic arpeggios of synths pulse, often buoying her graceful vocal mantras, while woodwinds breathe and flutter, emulating the wildlife Smith observed while growing up on the West Coast (she even studied recordings of slowed down bird calls prior to composing these pieces).   Though some of her gestures echo the musical tropes used by early minimalist composers, the world she creates on EARS is uniquely hypnotic and full of life, not unlike Miyzaki's film Nausicaä, which she cites as an inspiration.

Café Ale is Los Angeles-based musician and producer Alejandro Cohen. An irreplaceable fixture in LA’s sprawling music scene, Cohen has contributed his deft auditory touch to projects ranging from the hallucinatory Balearic bliss of Pharaohs (100% Silk, International Feel, ESP Institute, Holy Mountain) to the fuzz-drench auteur pop of Languis (Plug Research, Pehr). In addition to his acclaimed musical output, Cohen is responsible for corralling a wholly inclusive and globally-minded stable of tastemakers as director of dublab, Los Angeles’ long-running radio station.

Spanning eight shimmering sketches, 'Transformative Nature" marks Café Ale‘s debut set of recordings. With help from a revolving cast of collaborators, Cohen has crafted a tantalizing medley of evocative, rhythmic burners suited more for a breezy sunset than the dance floor. 

Opener “Devout” is an uplifting drift of noise and melody, floating down a river of serrated drones and serene piano keys. “Push-me Pull-U” unfurls its noir-ish, neon-flecked careen through saxophone-littered vistas. “Subir Es Lo Mejor” slithers with a muted and stuttering house beat, perfectly balancing rhythmic meditation with hypnotic transcendence. “Hymn” dials the narrative back into a warbled and woozy ambient symphony of synthetic beauty.

“Stranded” plays out like an autumnal raga for an unseasonably warm backyard house party, while “Dress’n Up” nods to some grand and cosmic melodrama. “Dead Child Song” brings a disarmingly moving melody of love and loss, countered by closer “Fallen Angel,” a curiously shoegaze-y traipse through a slurred and heady, effects-laden dream sequence. 

A captivating statement that shows Cohen’s dynamic, wide-ranging, and wholly unique approach to dance music.

An Ending (Ascent) (Remastered 2019)

Pre-order available now. Release date: Jan 31, 2020

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of Deep Listening, we offer you the definitive double LP combining the classic, complete original 1989 release with selected tracks from the Deep Listening Band’s 1991 album The Readymade Boomerang.

This elegant double LP is packaged in a gatefold sleeve with original and updated recollections from the performers, the recording engineer and a mesostic from John Cage, to which these recordings are inextricably linked.

Recorded in a cistern, this double LP reverberates with brilliant sonic clarity and masterfully improvised performances combining live electronics, vocals, trombone and accordion. Deep Listening is a classic in the fields of improvisation, minimalism, ambient/drone and modern classical.

Listen with attentiveness, listen while lying down, listen with headphones - as recording engineer Al Swanson entices the listener to become a virtual performer in selecting the many different ways to perceive these phenomenal tracks. Whatever you do, listen deeply.
