Anne, the second album By Toronto saxophonist and composer Joseph Shabason, is a tonal essay on degenerative illness. Delicately and compassionately woven with interviews of Shabason’s mother from whom the album takes its name, Anne finds its creator navigating a labyrinth of subtle and tragic emotions arising from his mother's struggle with Parkinson’s disease. Across the nine vivid postcards of jazz-laden ambience that comprise the album, Shabason unwraps these difficult themes with great care and focus revealing the unseen aspects of degenerative diseases that force us to re-examine common notions of self, identity, and mortality. 

Shabason’s uncanny ability to manoeuvre through such microscopic feelings is mirrored by his capacity to execute a similar tightrope-walk through musical genres. His music occupies a specific space that is as palpable as it is difficult to pin labels to. On Anne’s second track “Deep Dark Divide” rays of effected saxophone shine behind clouds of digital synthesizer that echoes the sound of jazz in the late 80s, but with a Jon Hassell-esque depth of sensibility that consciously subverts the stylistic inoffensiveness of that era. There is detail and idiosyncrasy beneath Shabason’s dawn-of-the-CD-era sheen that elevates the album far beyond a mere aesthetic exercise.

Still, the sounds on Anne are not so experimentally opaque as to stand in the way of the album’s through-line of sincerity and emotionality. When dissonance is employed it is punctual and meaningful, like on album-middler “Fred and Lil” where a six-minute cascade of breathy textures builds suddenly to an agitated growl, only to abruptly give way to Anne Shabason speaking intimately about her relationship to her own parents. Snippets of such conversations see her taking on something like a narrator role across Anne while the sound of her voice itself is sometimes effected to become a musical texture entwined into the fabric of the songs without always being present or audible.  The subsequent piece “Toh Koh” then drifts into playful disorientation as a lone female voice echoes the two syllables of the title, recalling the vocal techniques of composer Joan La Barbara, or even the light-hearted mantras of Lucky Dragons. From here the album veers back onto its aesthetic thoroughfare with “November” where Shabason lays muted brass textures atop a wavepool of electric chords provided by none other than the ambient cult-hero Gigi Masin, one of Anne’s many integral collaborators.

The serene tragedy of the album distils itself gracefully into the ironically titled album closer “Treat it Like a Wine Bar” wherein flutters of piano and mournfully whispered woodwinds seem to evaporate particle by delicate particle, leaving the listener with a faint emotional afterglow like a dream upon waking. There is a corollary to be drawn here with what it must be like to feel one’s own mind and body drift away slowly until nothing remains, while the collection of memories and abilities that we use to denote the “self” softens into eternity. On Anne, it is precisely this fragile exchange of tranquillity and anguish that Joseph Shabason has proven his singular ability to articulate.

LEVITATION 2019 - mix by Al Lover

Tarta Relena som la Marta Torrella i l'Helena Ros.
Gravat, mesclat i masteritzat a Caballo Grande Estudios excepte Tou Votanikoú, masteritzat a Vacuum Mastering.
Portada de Clàudia Torrents.

Ma ezevgarósan és una melodia de Creta que ens va ensenyar l’Evgenía Toli a Creta mateix. Tota Pulchra és una polifonia tradicional de Còrsega. D’ençà és la unió de Polifonia CDG de Maria Arnal i Marcel Bagés amb D’ençà que ella partí de Toti Soler. Morenika és una melodia sefardí. Cecília és una cançó menorquina. Votanikoú és una cançó de rebetiko que vam escoltar cantada per Tomas Karamazakis. Figues és la Björk collint figues a Mallorca. So de Pastera és un copeo mallorquí.

La música Ecuatoriana siempre ha sido algo muy especial para mí. Cada vez que descubro una canción, un nuevo estilo o un disco de un artista Ecuatorianx me enamoro más y más de la cultura que me ha dado tanto. 

Hice esta mezcla para mí amigo Angelo Baque, artista y diseñador en Nueva York fundador de AWAKE una empresa de ropa. Angelo es Ecuatoriano nacido en la YONI como yo! :) 

Estoy siempre en la búsqueda de artistas nacidos en Estados Unidos con padres Ecuatorianos. Cuando nos encontramos nos quedamos hablando de nuestra juventud, la cultura que compartimos y todo lo que trae ser hijos de Ecuatorianos. La curiosidad es una de las cosas que tenemos en común, son las ganas de buscar más historias de música y arte en el Ecuador y su diáspora. Aquí les comparto esta mezcla para que otros jóvenes hijos de Ecuatorianos en el mundo pueden conocer el Ecuador y sus raíces a través esta música. 

Las canciones que están en esta mezcla son de todo un poco, quiero compartir las cosas que me han inspirado a continuar corriendo desde mi curiosidad. 

Gracias a Daniel Lofredo Rota (Quixosis) por compartir conmigo y ser generoso en enseñarme las joyas de Ecuador. Gracias a Sofia Bastidas <3

La portada son dibujos que hizo el artista Ecuatoriano León Ricaurte como parte de su libro Diseños Pre Hispánicos del Ecuador. De joven mis primos eran amigos de Leon y su familia. Siempre andábamos en su casa en Chipipe mirando sus pinturas y paseando en la playa que quedaba al final de la calle.

Music from Ecuador has always been special for me. Every time I find a new song or album I fall deeper in love with this culture that has given me so much. I made this mix for my friend Angelo Baque who is an artist, designer and owner of AWAKE. He’s Ecuadorian American like me. :)

Im always looking and meeting artists that are Ecuadorian American and we’re always sharing so many similar stories about our upbringing through our parents culture and how it felt living and growing up in the USA. Our eagerness to find more visual and sound/music work from Ecuador is always so deep. My hope is to continue these conversations through posting these mixes and more!

Thank you to Daniel Lofredo Rota (Quixosis) for sharing his wealth of knowledge with me and Sofia Bastidas for helping out with words and friendship.

The cover art is by León Ricaurte from his book Diseños Pre Hispanics del Ecuador. I remember hanging with my cousins who were friends with his family at Leon’s house looking at his paintings, eating food and hanging by the beach in Chipepe. <3

Enjoy

something I wrote about this mix:

“Songs wrap up us in love, care, and mystery. Mixes feel like a conversation between your brain and heart. I'm always hoping my ears keep my spirit intact that way; my heart can run a rhythm that my mind can count to infinity. I love sound and music, and these songs are examples of constant wonder in how sound is an invisible force your body has a secret conversation with"
