Eila Star: Spaces (Digital)

Product Description

For fans of: Jefre Cantu-Ledesma, lovesliescrushing, aspidistrafly
Genres: experimental ambient, glitch-bliss, sound art

21-year-old Eila Star’s debut ranges from lo-fi ambient glitch-bliss to roaring fuzzed-out noise collages. Drone/ambient soundscapes abruptly collide with chilly, piercing, and eruptive aggressions. The processed guitars, synths, and subtle vocals blend and blur within the ocean of serene/chaotic moments. This evocative album doesn’t play softly. Spaces‘ eight tracks wind through distinct atmospheres: euphoric, other-worldly, chopped, anesthetized. Noise weaves freely throughout, pushing through the mix and navigating space. With seven years of recordings sampled, resampled, layered, reshaped, and resampled (yet again), Eila created Spaces in France, Canada, Utah, Texas, and Mississippi. Studio recordings, live shows, jam sessions and sentimental instances of sounds that come through everyday life conspire on these nostalgic, personal journeys through heavy emotional and dissociative states.
