Sound design for 'The Dryway' by Emma Zakes Green.

Text: Emma Zakes Green
Voices: A'raelle Flynn Bolden, Emma Zakes Green, Megan Therese Rippey

'The Dryway,' a merfolk opera written and directed by Emma Zakes Green was presented as part of Son of Semele Company Creation Festival 2016.

Loosely based on the ancient myth of Melusine, the half-serpent and/or half-fish woman widely popularized in the late medieval tales of Jean d'Arras, The Dryway tells the story of three mermaid sisters cursed to exile on land by their mother.
Prose, poetry, and original music follow the sisters’ banishment from the ocean to a motel bar in the desert, linking a mythic past with a gritty, humble present.

Review:

"One of the four pieces incubated at Son of Semele’s Company Creation Festival this year is The Dryway: A Merfolk Opera. On the small blackbox stage, three women speak, enact and sing a tale of a mermaid queen’s three daughters, who are banished from the sea.
(...)
They tell their tale in poetry and song. The spoken words are sometimes choral, sometimes monologs; the songs (backed by varied instruments) are sometimes trios, sometime solos, and often ironic. The complex sound design (by Yiannis Christofides) holds all of this together. Simple, effective choreography (by Kestrel Farin Leah) keeps the story in constant motion, and the spare costumes (Kate Fry) shift easily to mark changes." - Theater Ghost

Barro negro cassette, limited to 100

For nearly two decades, Jefre Cantu-Ledesma has led an ambitious and exploratory trail through a variety of sounds and genres. As a member of longtime underdogs Tarentel, Cantu-Ledesma broadened the horizons, challenged genre constraints, and pushed the boundaries of the entire post rock genre. Later, Jefre established with several experimental bands (the Alps, Portraits, Moholy-Nagy, etc.) and collaborative projects (Raum, with Grouper). But Jefre has also operated a bit behind the scenes, issuing heady sets of experimental music and film through Root Strata, the label he co-runs with Maxwell August Croy.

As a solo artist, Cantu-Ledesma creates deeply emotional sets of drone, noise, tape collage, and field recordings on the likes of Type, Mexican Summer, Digitalis, Students of Decay, and more. 

Jefre now joins Geographic North with In Summer, a cassette that furthers the nostalgia and melancholy portraits of 'A Year with 13 Moons' (2015 Mexican Summer) and 'Songs of Forgiveness' (2014 BARO) for briefer, yet more potent tape loop meditations. 

"Love's Refrain" opens the cassette by plunging into depths of reeling, Cocteau Twins-esque clouds of guitar and patient drum machine. Riddled with static and glorious, hypnotic tape warble, the song perfectly sets the stage for In Summer's emotional arc. "Little Deer Isle" meditates on a series of field recordings and unbelievable calmness.

"In Summer" exists in a rolling simmer of aural infidelity and physical, circumstantial magic. "Blue Nudes (I-IV)" creates a deep and undulating traipse through various vignettes of hope, love, loss, and admiration, while "Prelude" closes things out with a calm, understated but permeating sense of calm optimism.

on a sunny day, i wake up
and the light drains in
and automatically, i reach out
and i feel the warm weight on my fingers
yellow with the strain, I guess, I let up
kick the rubble on the eightfold
i see myself am i dreaming again cos it feels like

all my life i've been so sure i'm alright

but sometimes i'm lonely
and the only things i care about
fall apart like macaroni
only for today

i let it fall away and come down
let it dress me up
and as it i knew it would, there's no doubt
just a troubadour tied to my mooring
staring at my chains again, they're cut off
but i won't get out
i see myself as a marionette, yeah it feels like

all my life i've been so sure i'm alright
banging my drum, blow the fife, circle the pain all night

but sometimes i'm lonely
and the stupid things i think about
call my name seems like i'm only
waiting for today

you can live your life this way, it's true
while the old folk pray for tomorrow i'm waiting for today

all my life i've been so sure i'm alright
