For the first album release on Pure Space - and a welcome addition to our Home Listening Series - we are excited to present "At Every Corner" by Mara, a pivotal figure in Eora/Sydney's experimental music community.

Since 2020, the Home Listening series has showcased the introspective and wandering side of the label, featuring releases from Jennifer Loveless, jobfit, and 黑芝麻 (Hēi zhī ma). This series diverges from club constricts, inviting listeners to explore deeper, more contemplative soundscapes.

Throughout "At Every Corner", Mara weaves a rich tapestry of sound, creating captivating composites of audio snippets taken from her travels and performances along the way. The result is a mesmerising long-play that invites the listener into an ever wandering journey.

The album opens with its title track “At Every Corner”. Crafted from recordings taken primarily in Seoul, this track extends to various parts of South Korea. It features voices of new friends, loudspeaker announcements, insects, and fragments of Mara’s performances across the territory to capture and convey both the overstimulation and awe in the world surrounding her.
