"Memory Empathy" is a meditation on the past: how it shapes us and how we shape it in turn. Over 12 tracks, New Zealand-based producer DJ Birdbath draws from a varied palette of samples, both real and unreal, conjuring a colourful narrative patchwork. Some tracks are fragmented, with gurgling rhythms built from clipped vocals, like 'Another Day'. Others resemble deconstructed versions of sounds the producer grew up listening to in the UK. Take for example the breakbeat in the euphoric album opener 'Kitsch Memory' or the shoegaze-tinged vocals on 'Flames'.

While a sense of optimism radiates throughout the album — in particular on 'Leftover Igloo', 'Being There' and 'Last Time' — it’s the weird breakages and vaguely organic sounds which add to the complexity of the release and, in turn, make it feel more truthful. The imperfect mimesis is part of the appeal: with repeated listens "Memory Empathy" yields new surprises.

Flutes of doom

injection w/ ciringe - 22/01/2025

Debuting on Eastern Nurseries with "On a Grain of Rice", Berlin-based, American sound artist Mitchell Keaney traces a compelling line through the metaphysical nature of Arizona's deserts. Derived from a collection of recordings made while wandering the quiet streets of downtown Sedona after hours, Keaney captures the stillness and quiet intensity of the area and transforms it through digital collage and electroacoustic composition.

Forming part of his live performances throughout 2023, the pieces on "On a Grain of Rice" began to emulate their namesake buttes, with their rising tensions, crescendos and descents capturing the essence of the geological landmarks Keaney had hiked around earlier in the year. Connecting these buttes, Keaney built a trio of briefer “trails”, contextualising the mountainous compositions of the buttes with intermissions filled with distant unintelligible conversations, live music bleeding from a neighbourhood bar and gravel crunching underfoot.

Blending harsher textures with a delicate, almost pastoral sensibility, Keaney’s ear for detail has culminated in a body of work that offers an ode to all of the desert dwellers; those who have resided there in the past and present, and especially those who have gone through one in the psychological, or spiritual, sense.

lyrics: 
destruction of everything as my heart sinks into the void
destruction of everything as my heart sinks into the void
destruction of everything as my heart sinks into the void
destruction of everything as my heart sinks into the void

you are destruction to me
i’ll be your light even until the last second of my demise
i’ll be destructive to your soul until you beg to keep out
since you want me to slay you so bad, i’m death, i’m dead

(uh, uh, uh, uh) (oh-oh oh)
(uh, uh, uh, uh) (oh-oh oh)

your void is now full of guests
take me out if you don’t want to stress this enough, i confessed

what do you want? feel something, or make a change?
break the ground as you push yourself up to fly
but don’t end up falling because you think i made you
your void itself is going to make you fall to nowhere to be fallen from
you’ve failed to make us realize, stop trying to be your own void

i realized it’s not too late
to fill up the void with your love

Flutes of doom
