About this product
Everyday Is The Song is Joni Void's third album for Constellation and a deeper plunge into emotive audio montage; the Montréal-based French-British producer calls it InchTape Vortex / Musique Verité / Memory CollageInch. The album's raw material relies centrally on a Walkman bought at local record shop Death Of Vinyl in spring 2020 and lost at a Backxwash show two years later, but not before hours of audio snippets were captured and archived. Everyday Is The Song is an evocative sample-based sonic diary brimming with warmth, transience and hyper-specificity where Void explores a more abstract and interstitial terrain of drifting miniatures. It remains very much a collection of songs, but relative to the more assertive and intensive tracks channeling explorations of traumatic interiority on their previous pair of acclaimed LPs, Void's new album flows with intentional lightness and a more incidental atmosphere. Songs are constructed from audio recordings made all over and often while literally on the move walking, cycling and skateboarding around the city; in bus and train stations; from car windows. The album's overt musical material was recorded, often spontaneously and informally, in all sorts of jam spaces, living rooms and at local live shows. Perambulation is a central theme and constituent fabric of Everyday Is The Song, carrying with it a colloquial spirit of gentle, intrinsic sentimentality. The self-proclaimed Inchlove, soul, agency, and whimsyInch virtues of Ruby Yacht (R.A.P. Ferreira, Pink Navel, et al) have also been a lodestar for Void in this respect. As Sasha Geffen writes in their glowing 8.0 Pitchfork review of Joni Void's last album Mise en Abyme (2019) InchThere is still experience that can't be atomized and analyzed, however slippery it may be even to those feeling it; [Void] hunts that sensation of flux and liminality, unearthing warmth in a lan

Joni Void conjures deepening subtlety, elegy & emotion with their diaristic sample-based sound collage, delving further into chill/ambient/lofi vibes & textures that ebb & flow around gently kinetic art-pop & trip-hop song structures. A beguiling album voyage of delicate hauntological materiality featuring sampled & recorded guests from Montréal, Japan & beyond. Feat.

Mise en Abyme is the second full-length by Joni Void, the avant-electronica project of France/Canada producer Jean Cousin, following his acutely accomplished and acclaimed 2017 debut album Selfless (#8 Experimental Album of 2017 at Pitchfork). Consistent with Selfless, the primary materials for the sample-based cut-up songcraft on Mise en Abyme are Cousin's recordings of the voices of various friends. His self-professed body/voice dysmorphia, social disphoria, and search for the disembodied-yet-emotional transcendent subject, continues to compel the use of other (predominantly non-verbal) voices in the construction of these sublimely affecting electronic-minimalist compositions. Mise en Abyme is markedly more introspective and meditative than it's predecessor, explicitly in search of intimacy and recuperative beauty. Grappling with a cascade of heartbreaks and discontinuities over the past year, Cousin also calls the new album a Inchtime-travel experimentInch, as he culls sounds from devices and sources spanning childhood to the to retrieve and reframe subjective memories, histories and Inchregressions through former selvesInch via immersion in the evocative potential of the mostly wordless voices of others. The resulting song cycle is a remarkable blend of conceptual abstraction and highly emotive warmth, interiority, humanity and specificity. Album Tracks 1. Paradox 2. Dysfunctional Helper 3. Lov-Ender 4. Abusers 5. Non-Dit 6. No Reply 7. Safe House 8. Cinetrauma 9. Voix Sans Issue 10. Deep Impression 11. Persistence 12. Resolve
