Virgil
28th November 21
Virgil’s last DM said “must resurface all foundational material” - joking about a scribble jam flyer shared on his stories. The ultimate post cool ambassador: Virgil was kind. Generous. Earnest. And honest about his influences. No arrogance. No ironic detachment. The fan who saw that the way people gain context was changing, and as avatar he could stir desire by expressing his love of culture. He understood he could flatten it all on ig. I’ve been thinking about the stories I’ve taken for granted: I remember showing him S-Type’s Billboard cover before we went to print. And we talked about high/low a decade ago, suspended in Emil’s studio three floors above a Chelsea gallery. Cruel Summer spilled into the halls while we sat there talking about breaking into institutions or becoming one. You will be sadly missed.

Songs of Vienna
1st September 21
Today we announce the new album by Clemens Bacher aka CID RIM. Songs from Vienna is a psychedelic ride from the Austrian capital.

For around a decade Clemens has built a scene in Vienna for jazz influenced electronic music. Working as songwriter and producer with Petite Noir, Denai Moore and Damon Albarn over the last five years it became natural to involve his own voice in his music. When we started receiving demos from Clem, featuring hazy beach boys harmonies we knew his music was daring to evolve.

Songs of Vienna, out October 15, is an album of the year. It feels like the world at the moment... saturated with history and daring to leap into the future for answers. These songs work as intimate pop records - a young man moving to London and reflecting on his home town. Or treaties on a symbolic Vienna: colonialism, social democracy and the climate disaster. But the album is refreshing, full of life and sonically unmatched: with live instrumentation and choirs brewed into his electronic compositions, Clemens has made a brave leap forward. And you gotta hear this thing...

Icons
25th June 21Proud to release the new album by NYC percussionst & composer Eli Keszler. Icons out June 25: a latticework of melodic percussion, drum set, and electro-acoustic instrumentation, built upon fragments of American abstraction, ancient scales, industrial percussion and jazz-age film noir to achieve its feeling of imperial decay. Keszler’s instrumental performances are framed by panoramic recordings of New York City and the Odyssey Cave. Expansive music that takes on forms difficult to describe outside of the loss and wonderment that defines our age

Sophie
30th Jan 21
We met Sophie in 2013 around the release of ‘Nothing More To Say’. Quiet, smart and iconoclastic - her talent was obvious. When putting on these shows - stressful showcases running around foreign cities - we take for granted the trust we gain for each other. To discuss how you were to perform was to understand how you wanted to present. It lead to conversations about art and music that became the basis of our friendship. Sophie, we love you and would of loved to see where you would take us.
