"In 2014-2015, I created something using noiseful recording snippets based on the EarPods microphone.

The sound of heavy iron doors closing in coffee shop, inexplicable sounds echoing in quiet hallways, fragmented and non-functional dialogue voices collected from here and there, the sound of the microphone brushing against clothing, fragments of ordinary guitar playing, spontaneous humming and murmuring, and countless other sound fragments erased from memory are transformed, cut, and assembled until meaningful units emerge.

Starting from curiosity about how uncontrollable fragments will be shaped through organization, and what musical meaning they will acquire, I arrived at the result of an album.

At this point, I become curious about how the meaning woven from randomness can be interpreted differently. Art director HOBIN combines this result with visually unexpected, diverse, and even confusing imagery. A sense of instability replaces the perception of stability, emitting a strangely alien charm.

Ultimately, this journey becomes meaningful as a movement away from standardization and patterns, where fragments of auditory and visual elements are roughly assembled. What conclusions will you reach on this sensory journey? It may not be as difficult as you think. It may even be more familiar than you realize." - FIRST AID (translated from Korean)

Marie describes the project in her own words:

For this album, photographs by Thomas Lutz illustrate a narrative that is recounted with my music. A person - let’s call them "She" - who leaves her parent’s house to lead an independent life. But then for whatever circumstances, she faces the danger of homelessness.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
"She’s Leaving", the title track, is inspired by an experience at age 17, when I left my parent’s house and carried a box of my things on foot to my new home. On my 38th birthday - the day my grandmother died - I wrote this piano piece.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
"Variation I" features a modified piano with sound built in the granular synthesizer. In "Variation II" and "III" this process is continued with addition of instruments and spatial effects.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
"Night Tube" is both a further variation and a reminiscence of "Waking the Witch" by Kate Bush.
In "Night Tube" I think of a homeless person who nods off in the London subway at night and is startled, again and again, by inner and outer voices. In the metaphorical sense, it’s also about being scared awake in one’s own circumstances. There are currently an estimated 59,000 homeless women in Germany.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
"Without A Sound" closes the album. With this remix of the piano piece "She’s Leaving" I tried to capture some of the emptiness and quiet vastness of Ryuichi Sakamoto 坂本龍一 music ("async"). The trumpet samples come from a nocturnal jam session in the recording studio of HMDK Stuttgart ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣in which I was involved.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
With the additional "Threads of Reflections" remix, Belial Pelegrim contributes a unique cinematic soundscape with a generous and gentle atmosphere.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
All photographs on which the music is based and an extensive artwork can be found in the bonus material on bandcamp.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
A portion of the proceeds from this album will be donated to Light House - Homeless Prevention Support Center

Our brother in sound Currency Audio's new EP drops today on Exit Records UK ❤️

https://exitrecords.co.uk/album/exit095-currency-audio-humanism-ep

A real-time, improvisational, and generative breakbeat project powered by Ableton Live and electronic drum triggers, producer and percussionist Rajeev Maddela aims to bring a refreshingly human approach to electronic music composition. Performed in the moment and without a click or backing tracks, with melodies being generated using controlled chance, the Humanism EP aims to highlight the expressive qualities of natural time, a widened dynamic range, one's reaction to chance events, and a deep obsession with late 90's breakbeat styles. Approaching them as a series of ‘photographs’, each track represents a start to finish MIDI percussion performance, applying minimal post production or editing. Currency is the state of being present.

All tracks were recorded in the moment, letting instinct drive each composition. Some general concepts I wanted to express across the EP are intimacy, honesty, minimalism, and the organic spirit of jungle music.
