Great to be back in DC, funny to be playing at U Street Music Hall again… Apparently the new spot for go go cds is the mobile phone store on U Street. Wish I’d known last time!

NEW IN STOCK FROM GOLDSMITHS MUSIC

It came to my attention at the most recent NX Records pop-up shop that many Goldsmiths students and graduates have been busy making their own gorgeous releases. Luckily I’ve managed to get my greedy mitts on this lot for the Editions of You distro! 

From top left clockwise - Edward A Guy, Clare Kelly, Lyle and of course the glorious girl-pop of Femme.

one of many findings ~ tension & relaxation

The prevalence and variety of imaginings in our experience of music, including many of the examples I have mentioned and others as well, is reflected in the prevalence and variety of metaphors we use to describe it. We call passages of music exuberant, agitated, serene, timid, calm, determined, nervous. We speak of rising and falling melodies, of wistful melodies and hurried rhythms, of motion and rest, of leaps, skips, and stepwise progression, of statements and answering phrases, tension and release, resignation and resolve, struggle, uncertainty, and arrival. Music can be impetuous, powerful, delicate, sprightly, witty, majestic, tender, arrogant, peevish, spirited, yearning, chilly.

I do not think that metaphorical descriptions always indicate imaginative experiences (even subliminal ones) on the part of listeners, but in many instances they do. We imagine (something's) rising or descending. (Or we can easily get ourselves to imagine thus as we listen to the music; an awareness of this possibility may color our hearing even when we don't actually engage in the imagining.) The metaphors purists are least able to avoid, those of tension and release, motion and rest, seem to me to involve imagination. To appreciate music one must feel tension and release; one must allow oneself to imagine motion and rest.

Lilac Mixtape: Tape tracks archived online [soundcloud]

2 collaborative tracks [Long Way Home & Rupert Sessions 1 (RS 101)] written this summer with Rupert Colgrave (guitar), in fact the only 2 tracks we put together.

The other 2 tracks are romantic glances over the personal nostalgia of reworked instrumentals and reinterpreted with an alternative love narrative/willing personal invasion - [Palm Leaves & AYNX]. 

A huge thanks to Vlad who mastered the A side tracks with me, and put up with my continuous revisions.

A physical stocking of an independent release opportunity in the nxrecords pop-up store provoked me to put this release together. Now that the store has come to a close, the tapes have moved to Lisa Busby's 'editionsofyouproject' distro, and soon will be available in the CLF Art Cafe's record store, Rye Wax in Peckham & mail order direct from me through bandcamp. 

My acknowledgements range from thematic content appropriation to emotional influences, and a wide range of assistances. They're all over the streaming platforms, and are in the tape case printed on my original notepad draft, as I couldn't have done it without all of them. Especially those sparse negative lyrics that birthed an energetic heartbreak & gave the tape a unique energy that was difficult at times to harness.
