WMH001 /// (C) & (P) Weighted My Hand 2025

///

The debut offering from Weighted My Hand is Tributary - an EP comprising four crystalline cuts of synthetic abstraction presented by Yves (AKA London based producer and DJ William Messenger).

Situated at the crossroads of electronic music traditions including Ambient, Dub and Techno, Tributary gathers sparse works evocative of nocturnal atmospheres, its intricately woven skeletal structures gliding effortlessly from opener Plenum’s weightless post-grime towards the hypnotic lumber of Braided Form.

Eschewing the dancefloor orientations of their influences, Yves crafts an immersive HD listening experience, devout in its concentrated minimalism via reverberating fragments of melody and the spectral embers of bygone rhythms.

Silver Waves is the longstanding project of Dylan Mallett. A producer based in Bristol, his practice encompasses aspects of electroacoustic composition, audio engineering and improvisation.

Amongst releases on Berlin's Portals Editions (Maria W Horn, Yair Elazar Glotman), Silver Waves has soundtracked independent video games and contributed to contemporary art pieces (Klein's ‘Lifetime' for Serpentine Galleries), as well as composing for multi-channel surround sound performance.

Following technical credits on releases from AD93, Drowned By Locals and two Acne Studios collections, European shows with Liturgy, aya and Moor Mother and extensive collaborations with free improv vocalist Dali de Saint Paul, Silver Waves presents debut album ‘Aninstar’ via Mun Sing & NE$$’s label Illegal Data.

Aninstar embodies a quest for rebirth via transitory states. Taking root during a four-month stint in Llandudno, it tells tales of a stray dog as it journeys through an underworld, conjures viking funeral sea-scapes from shoreline voice notes and liminal crossroads punctuated by whispered meditations.

Forming sonic allegories for the stories in Dylan’s surroundings, its six tracks emanate from coastal field recordings, pneumatic drill foley, chopped and screwed vocal takes and gnarled string instruments - landing somewhere between industrial shoegaze, sound collage and new age music.
