About this product
Clear Grape Colored Vinyl. Ava Luna's self-titled album is an introspective and grounded collection that marks a significant evolution for the quartet. The acclaimed group - now consisting of Carlos Hernandez, Julian Fader, Ethan Bassford, and Felicia Douglass - has stripped back their sound to it's core. Following the departure of Kye (fka Becca Kauffman) in 2019, Ava Luna re-emerges with a focus on the fundamental elements of drums, bass, and the dual vocals of Carlos and Felicia.The new album is decidedly Earth-bound, drawing heavily on the members' shared experiences and their deep roots in New York City. This back-to-basics approach was a conscious decision to move away from the expansive, InchcosmicInch feel of their previous album, Moon 2. Instead, the album delves into the nuances of everyday life, exploring themes of frustration and exhaustion that come with the mundane realities of work and survival, but also the joy and power in moving through life in community and chosen family, and finding precarious rootedness. For instance, InchLasting ImpressionInch captures the feeling of being fed up at a job, while InchMath Money JobInch offers a playful, body-conscious take on a friendly reunion, in the form of a schoolyard chant.At the heart of the album is the rhythmic interplay between Julian Fader's drums and Ethan Bassford's bass, forming a Inchclose to the earth, melting into the sidewalkInch foundation. This deliberate focus on the rhythm section was a key part of their creative process, ensuring the songs could stand strong in their most stripped-down before any additional layers were introduced. Julian specifically cites Soul Coughing as an influence, particularly their use of crude sampling, which can be heard scattered throughout the record, including on InchFrame of Us,Inch where their powerful rhythm section.Moving beyond traditional lead and backup

We are excited to put Moonshake's debut album Eva Luna back in print, and on October 6th, we will a deluxe edition re-mastered from analogue ½Inch tape on double blue vinyl. Our reissue contains 19 tracks which equal the album's original 10, The non-LP three-song single InchSecondhand ClothesInch, the two b-sides from the InchBeautiful PigeonInch single and four tracks from a November 1992 John Peel session. The also includes an 8-page full-colour booklet. Moonshake was formed in 1991 by David Callahan (vocals, guitars, samplers), formerly of The Wolfhounds, and New York musician Margaret Fiedler (vocals, guitars, samplers). InchEva Luna really is one hell of a ground-breaking record, and it stands resolutely alone among all of the albums released in 1992 as no other band has managed to create anything remotely similar before or since. It really is a unique album with few equals.Inch - LOUDER THAN WARA1. City Poison A2. Sweetheart A3. Spaceship Earth A4. Beautiful Pigeon A5. Mugshot Heroine B1. Wanderlust B2. Tar Baby B3.
