9 of cats videos
a belated announce about the moving abstract videos giorgio magnanensi created for the 9 of cats release this past march. was an effortless pleasure to get together with giorgio on this. thank you
next EP announced for low indigo
9 OF CATS EP
coming APRIL 8 on all channels (bandcamp, itunes, juno, beatport, spotify, etc)
including videos for each song by giorgio magnanensi
tracklisting:
1 - why
2 - gwey from
3 - slow motion
4 - sirens
here's a piece of the write-up:
'gwey from' is an expression on the current state of earth. it views the more destructive side, earthquakes, large scale catastrophe, violence and suffering, .....and the massive aching beauty of it all. a world dying, swirling and collapsing into itself, while a world is re-born. the sound of evolution in progress and an even larger hope. gwey is "go away" in patois. so the literal translation "go away from" is an example of the basic ignorance that brought this current world to it's destructive end, but also an example of transcendence beyond literal language and feeling the correct meaning (new ways in a new world).
low indigo news..
momemtums and navigations have started to level out a bit for low indigo as a label now. started with the bandcamp, then moved up to some proper distro which promptly folded just a few months in, then the following re-calibration, new distro, now smoothing out and approaching glide mode there. quite soon, if not already, all low indigo releases should be available on all the major retailers like itunes, juno, beatport, etc. ..and remain on bandcamp as well.
future release schedules, mists taking shape:
in less then a month we'll have okpk's latest 'hollow' ep out, paired with video curtosy of laine butler. cats only club / ep release party for that'll be friday feb 12 at a familiar location (stay tuned).
in march will be a 4 song EP from me, '9 of cats'. long time vancouver experimental music community shaper giorgio magnanensi has created four outstanding videos for that. one is in 3D even.
and in spring, slope is putting the final touches on his debut EP for the label, with long time collabortaor corinthian on deck for the video.
preperations are being made for a compilation slotted for late spring. some familiar names to label already, and some new ones. stay tuned!
..and lastly, as a nice cherry-on-top to the new year and fresh energies that come with - just caught wind of the lovely label spotlight piece FREQ printed in september. some months later, but the timing is actually perfect. thanks FREQ!
