The enigmatic Tennessee-raised, Turin-based Yves Tumor presents a poignant new album, recorded between Miami, Leipzig, Los Angeles and Berlin over the past three years. 

Evolved from a diverse and prolific creative history under an expansive plethora of covert aliases via various forward-thinking labels, 'Yves Tumor' emerges as his most personal and matured incarnation to date.

With involvement across various artistic outlets expanding to fashion such as a visceral live performance for LA's Hood By Air earlier this year, the global artist has built a distinctly bold personal aesthetic both musically and visually as a performer.

Painstakingly written from pieces developed upon since 2013, the new record, titled 'Serpent Music', was initially composed as a soul record - based around delicate and emotive songwriting in various forms. It was a highly difficult project to undertake on both a creative and personal level, weaving thematic links through paranoia, social anxiety, and missing loved ones. "The songs come from a much more emotional and very vulnerable place... They're very close to me and I've been cautious of how I would eventually present them to the world." he explains. 

The album spans sonically diverse and richly-textured pieces, formed from live, organic instruments, samples and various field recordings. Dreamlike lo-fi psychedelia sits alongside broken electronic experimentations, ambient compositions between abrasive noise offer insight into a haunting otherworld. From melodic choral vocals and soaring synths, to screeching guitar riffs, dramatic spoken word samples and live drumming, 'Serpent Music' evidently moves through a strange and intriguing personal journey.

The album is mastered and cut by Rashad Becker at D&M, featuring photography by Daniel Sannwald.

Next we welcome Fernando Seixlack aka 'Innsyter' to the Good Morning commune. (@innsyter)

Raised in Sao Paulo, Brazil, though now finding his feet in Berlin, this lo-fi explorer is no stranger to the scene, having previous releases on notorious labels such as L.A Club Resource & L.I.E.S. 

Though here on this release for GMT, Fernando takes an opportunity to reflect on his new found German home & surroundings.

Enduring the struggles of learning a new language & finding his groove away from the familiar,  Fernando has taken the past year to embrace the challenges of change & isolation...delving deeper into the subterranean lands of his own mind & bubble, meditating & interacting indepth with the great outdoors regularly.

Approaching his trusty 8 track Yamaha MT8X & machines in a different way this time, ‘Magnolia Shade” offers an honest look into Fernando’s unique style of one-man-band, Ambient Island Dub. 

Limited copies of 'Magnolia Shade' by Innsyter are now available via the Good Morning Tapes online store, with support from our usual retail family & friends abroad coming shortly....
