eRecords is a digital record series created by Whitelabrecs, to run alongside our physical releases. These editions aim to transform the digital format into something that can be experienced in a similar way to a listener’s interaction with a real, white label vinyl record. Each edition includes a special PDF scrapbook including polaroids and liner notes.

We do not publish details about the concepts or production methods of a release, so that the liner notes and content in each scrapbook will give you the background of each edition in the series.

Their Prayer

“SOS” is part of a larger dance score composed by Madeleine Cocolas in collaboration with the VALLETO Dance Company for their upcoming Season 4 program. 

VALLETO’s “SOS” explores the nature of the soul in chaos with now unrecognizable memories. 

Thanks to VALLETO Artistic Director Valeria Gonzalez and Tim Held from Self Center Records."

II (from EP "SOS")

Simply a minimal drone, subtle sonic wallpaper. "Repetition is a form of change." ... an oblique strategy ... stoney.sb.org/eno/oblique.html

Inspired by minimal drone music in general, the subtleties of an oscillator, filter, reverb, or any sound source.

Thanks for listening...

Those who have been following my musings through the years surely have already read these words before. It is slightly awkward to employ my self-built platform as a tool to plug and self-promote. But self-promote I must, because how else will I inform you all, my friends, of my creations, that in part I’ve made for you to share with. Such is the case with my only second-ever collaboration, this time with a musician whom I now call a friend. James Murray and I met many years ago, virtually at first, and then in person, when I moved to London from New York. We’ve shared many musical moments [and even played together at an impromptu jamming session one late evening at his home], until one day, one thing led to another, and we’ve put out a short but sweet release [see “Living Treasure“]. And yet, Suññatā is something else entirely. Composed in complete partnership with this amazing artist, Suññatā follows a path of introspection to find a space where the self completely ceases to exist. This meditation in sound follows an arch designed to take you deeper into the nature of being until, at the end of this journey, you melt into nothingness. It may be a frightful experience at first, but it is also truly liberating and sublime. Today, I’d like to premiere the final piece on this same-titled album, which is out tomorrow, on the ever-glowing label that is Home Normal.

"Suññatā is the experience of encountering the non-self, of a sound and its reflection meeting in empty space, found here in the remarkable combined resonance of emotive piano and uniquely reactive sound design."

The album was beautifully mastered by Ian Hawgood on his miraculous analog gear and is available on a compact disc and as a digital release on all of your favorite streaming platforms. Preview a few more tracks and pre-order your copy via the label’s Bandcamp.

TRACK PREMIERE : James Murray & Mike Lazarev - Suññata

from 'Miscellany' [CD|LP|DIGITAL]
Denovali Records · den348
available on all formats at http://denovali.com/origamibiro

After an almost 6 year hiatus, and the break up of the audio-visual trio it had evolved into, Origamibiro returns with Miscellany, a body of work amassed during the years since the release of 2014’s Odham’s Standard.

Though the group never officially disbanded, a number of life-changing events meant it simply became impossible to continue together. As such, the project organically reverted back to the solo pursuits of composer Tom Hill. Fellow multi-instrumentalist Andy Tytherleigh, however, remains a strong collaborator.

Miscellany comprises a varied mixture of work, ranging from electroacoustic to orchestral chamber music. Drawing upon much of the found-sound style for which Origamibiro became known, the DIY approach to sampling and composing continues to play a central role in the process.

Exploration into the tangible nature of everyday objects and textures - both in and outside of the home - is a theme relished in much of Origamibiro’s work. Forest brambles and plastic toy Easter eggs are examined in surgical detail alongside the debris of demolished piano parts, to be repurposed into whatever sonic potential they offer up.

However, new additions to the instrumental palette - viola da gamba, piano, zither, singing bowl, glockenspiel, drum machines and gongs - contribute to an even broader timbre.

Miscellany will be released on Denovali, March 2021.
