“I always knew the colour of the cover would be blue, and I’ve tried to make music which ‘sounds’ blue” Pierre Rousseau’sMémoire De Forme arrives today. The final chapter a three part series started in 2020, and the finest hour (technically, under an hour) so far from Pierre. Available through RVNG, Bandcamp, and in your streams n’ dreams.
Press pray and float away 🙏🌓 Dylan Moon’sSong & Dance EP is out now. Whether or not you knew you needed to hear captivating pop melodies + celestial pedal steel and synths set to breaks, these four songs just deliver. Another stunner from Dylan.
With The Body’sI Shall Die Here / Earth Triumphantarriving at the end of the month, we revisit Jason Evans’ short film At the Mercy of it All. A story of humankind projecting onto nature its own sense of personal doom.
“Listening to The Body’s I Shall Die Here, I was pulled entirely into this landscape that had been created; an incredibly visual account of death, tragedy and loss. I had this image of a man, his face covered in dirt, but his arms still moving and his eyes open. body and soil. the image reminded me of the kind of parallels artist Robert Smithson made between geological change and the fragility of the mind, which in turn gave me the emotional content of the film”
Keep feeling fascination ☁️☝️🏁 Released ten years ago this week, Stellar Om Source’sJoy One Mile. There was not a record like JOM before on RVNG, and there hasn’t been one since. While revisiting brings back a rush of memories, the music remains unplaceable, outside of time. Truly unbound sound from one of the absolute greats.
While reeling back the years / winding up the time machine gears, we came across the below unreleased video for “Natives / Most Answers Never Unveiled” by our fam Georgia. Big Kassem Mosse imprint on this track, whom we somehow convinced to mix and arrange this album. Artwork by Will Work For Good, ofc!
The second piece from Pierre Rousseau’s imminent Mémoire De Forme arrives today as “København.” Informed by his prolific work as a composer and sound designer for film, as well as some good ol’ personal growth, Mémoire de Forme gently observes the past to inform the present.
Enjoy the video for “København” by Valentin Gillet below, and pre-order Mémoire De Formehere.
“It saddens me to know that the predominantly commercial music purveyors of today give such scan consideration to the enrichment of your gentle spirit. Perhaps they have forgotten where it dwells.”
