About this product
First in a series of three records of library music miniatures from composer and multi-instrumentalist Daniel O'Sullivan (Æthenor, Ulver, This is Not This Heat, etc). For heads, the term Inchlibrary musicInch in 2020 might evoke dodgy Italian gray market LPs and crate diggers hunting for Inchfunky breaksInch-but London's venerable KPM Music is working with groundbreakers like O'Sullivan to open up new avenues for composers to experiment. Electric Maya includes eighteen gems, beautifully arranged and recorded specifically for the challenge of the short form. These are fully realized tunes, not just clips from the middle of some jam to be used on late night TV. The obvious touchstones here are Eno's On Land and Music For Films, but O'Sullivcan's touch on multiple instruments and knack for melody extend the music far beyond mere atmospherics. There are plenty of drifty segments, each rendered fully realized-a timely reminder that a well-made drone or bit of ambience can set it's spell in two or three minutes rather than thirty. In a beautiful jacket designed by O'Sullivan and Turner Prize-nominee Mark Titchner.

Limited red colored vinyl LP pressing. Includes . 2023 . InchI was finally able to trust myself fully,Inch says Indigo de Souza of making her masterful third album All of This Will End. Across 11 it's songs, the LP is a raw and radically optimistic work that grapples with mortality, the rejuvenation that community brings, and the importance of centering yourself now. These tracks come from the most resonant moments of her life childhood memories, collecting herself in parking lots, the ecstatic trips spent wandering Appalachian mountains and southern swamps with friends, and the times she had to stand up for herself. InchAll of This Will End feels more true to me than anything ever has,Inch she says. In many ways, All of This Will End has become a personal motto for Indigo. InchEvery day I wake up with the thought that this could be the end,Inch she says. InchYou could look at it as a sad thing, or you could look at it as a really precious thing Today I'm alive and at some point, I will not be in this body anymore. But for now, I can do so much with being alive.Inch There's a peacefulness in acceptance throughout. As she sings on the title track, InchI'm only loving only moving through and trying my best / Sometimes it's not enough but I'm still real and I forgive.Inch She describes the experience of writing this song as Inchmagic,Inch as if everything about it from the words and melody had felt timeless and intangible and that she was just writing it down. Like the hues of reds and oranges that her mother painted on the LP cover, All of This Will End marks a warmer and unmistakably audacious era for her. It's a statement about fearlessly moving forward from the past into a gratitude-filled present, feeling it all every step of the way, and choosing to embody loving awareness.

Vinyl LP pressing. Includes . Originally released to a fan base and music press that were unprepared for the band to move on from the punk fury of InchCrossing The Red SeaInch, The Adverts InchCast Of ThousandsInch has since been recognized as a lost classic of the time. TV Smith's cutting observational lyrics and sharp musical instincts saw his song writing grow and move in unexpected directions. The primal thumping was replaced by dynamic and driving drumming, acoustic guitars and probing solos emerged, and Tim Cross joined to add keyboards and fill out the overall sound. The one constant was the pounding throb of Gaye Advert's bass. Encouraged to experiment by surprise producer Tom Newman (Mike Oldfield InchTubular BellsInch) the band found themselves stretching creatively, both in song writing and recording techniques. They might agonize over the sound of recording a match being lit in the middle of one song, while doing a single take of a vocal via a microphone hung in the bathroom for another. Giant choirs were built meticulously over multiple tracks, while the sound of a rat running through the reverb room would be captured forever. The results wrapped some of TV's best songs in strange and inventive sounds to compliment his anti-pop smarts and rock and roll heart.
