even more other joe

Other Joe’s ‘Jealousy Tulip’ arrives in stasis - as if suspended in mid-air. No longer rising but not yet falling.

After contributing a piece to our Stay In Bed Vol. II compilation we proudly present the latest EP from the .jpeg Artefacts label head, a hazy five tracker built on swirling loops, murky textures and playful motifs.   Joe’s EP is comprised of loops made in a single day and ruminated over long walks. Large project files and overloaded effect racks caused the renders of each file to take on a slightly different flavour each time they were exported. We’ve dubbed this precarious workflow “CPU Jazz”.

Within these uneasy and at times disconcerting sonic textures there are hopeful melodies and rhythms that cut through the fog, suggesting an idyllic spring that is just out of reach. Let your ear hold onto these moments and use them as a key to open you up to the meditative garden of the Jealousy Tulip.

Naarm’s Joseph Buchan resembles a kind of collage artist. His latest album blessings from th eheart—released under his Other Joe moniker—is sourced from voice memos, Logic projects, iPhone videos and other random pieces of sound archived since the release of his excellent debut album Alien Haze. “Looking over it all at once, the musical ideas I had been attracted to over the past eight or nine months started to make a bit more sense,” he said. “I could see that there were instruments I was liking, or chord progressions that I kept coming back to, structures and forms that I had found engrossing. Sort of like putting together a jigsaw puzzle that I had made without realising.” Out of this pointillistic approach, Buchan turns field recordings, dronescapes and harmonic progressions into some of the most sentimental and beautiful music he’s ever made.

Nowhere is that more clear than on ‘Man of the World’. The track contains the producer's signature fog of electronic textures intertwined with field recordings and a simple but gorgeous melody played by Nico Callaghan on piano. Just like his counterpart’s own music, specifically their Haji K. alias, Buchan knows how to carefully weave layers of sound into something delicate, weightless and visceral. The overall result—sonically anyway—is an ambient track where every small detail adds a degree of intimacy to the cavernous soundscapes Buchan builds around them.

Wanted. Wanted. Getting head and alive. Such is the way of women as regards other women. Gendered psychosexual cannibalia, homophilic mutualism. Out of the equation, I stand on the sidelines awestruck and dweeb-like. Discounted by guydom. Ostracised. A spectator. Othered but not other. joe. other joe. 'other joe's girls want joe' mix of 6 Liege's 'Girls Want Girls'. Found.

drake - girls want girls (other joe's girls want joe mix) [MK PREMIERE]

'a cat can look at a king'. An album by the Australian artist other joe. The first-ever music release by the label ost. Six works of respite, six slow-exhaled sighs of contentment and relief.

Pink and golden hues, finely woven textures, gossamer-soft threads of luminescence. An album for daydreaming in a warm place or travelling to a haven on a horizon. Music tingling with soft-swaying light: fogscapes cleaved by strobe, afternoon sun dapples on bedroom wall. Intimacy and privacy, perfect thoughts and perfect blankness. The sound of safety and simple bliss. The sound of home and the transit to it. You’ve arrived :)

A wrinkle in time, a deity's dream, a split second in the yawning evermore, ocean drop, one lucky spermatozoa, and here we sit or stand or recline, maybe contorted but probably comfortable. It's too beautiful. All of it. But enough about other joe's l0veblister, off 'a cat can look at a king', the debut release from Ian Kim Judd music ass OST. This life is a brick.

Absorb presents the debut EP by 'dummy tree', the interlocked, ambient strong of Melbourne's Jim Sellars (Yunzero), Jordan Obarzanek (Body Clock, OBA, Cloud Ice 9), and Joseph Buchan (Other Joe).

Three improvisational live cuts form the super-group’s first release, all pinched from their dovetailed performance at the ABSORBED festival in 2024. It was 4:30pm, they were backlit by the afternoon sun. Through these longform recordings, each member of dummy tree can be heard intimately, testing dynamics in turn and introducing surprising amounts of drama. There are guitars, both acoustic and electric, competing with synthesisers and woodwind instruments that build from a murmur into whole walls of sound. The drowsy atmospherics are akin to early Seefeel or Windy & Carl, although careful listeners will also pick up crumbs that trace back to the extensive catalogue of works made by Sellars, Obarzanek and Buchan individually.

You'll find the music of dummy tree to be more disarming than any of the aforementioned, a special project that is worth celebrating in its infancy, and to watch out for while it grows.

Let’s get to the meat of the matter, shall we? I’m done with the bush beatery and the drain circling. I’m talking flesh. I want it. Show it to me. I would like to regard it in its breathing, pulsing pomp. No more faff, no more whatabouterie. Meat. Only meat. Meat: other joe’s ‘Flawless’. A veritable abattoir. To reside in the meat mansion, slabs of the finest cuts splayed in lieu of decor. We’re here. Meat.

PREORDER: https://other-joe.bandcamp.com/album/flawless

"I’ve been friends with Joe since we were kids. He is a profound silence filler," writes freelance writer Emile Frankel of his friend Other Joe (aka @josephbuchan) in our upcoming feature article.

'Flawless' is Joe's latest record, regularly toying with the space between ambience, very comfortably proving the artist's ability to leave room for the listener to hear their own breath. 

'Deepblue', co-produced with fellow etherealist @ronan-music, is the penultimate track on Joe’s new record, ‘Flawless’. 

A touching, soft, and yet calmly loud dance. Crunchy, uncompressed drums and ever twinkling pads twist around the echo of an Amen break. NY’s Ronan and Naarm’s Joe link up in the haze to produce something unique. 

'Deepblue' is a taste of everything available on Other Joe’s latest record, becoming available and possible from the inimitable @besteffort. 

'Flawless' is available as a limited run of 150 vinyl via Best Effort’s Bandcamp, and via all streaming platforms on Sunday, June 1.
