EMEGO 239CD
|
UUUU is a new outfit featuring Edvard Graham Lewis, Thighpaulsandra, Matthew Simms, and Valentina Magaletti. Individually these humans have implanted feathers in caps such as Coil, Dome, Wire, Tomaga, etc. Collectively they form UUUU, a powerhouse construction of fierce and free sonic exploration, as liberating as it is frightening, resulting in a richly rewarding sound. The artists united present a project of exquisite curiosity and confident chaos where the individual thumbprints mesh into a gloriously muscular frenetic free sonic soup. "It's Going All Over The Floor" presents itself as a terse meeting between dance, ambient, abstraction, and improvisation. "The Latent Black Path Of Summons Served" proceeds in a tense energy field where random elements bounce around until locking into a fourth world pattern designed to fall into a dense mass of ecstatic noise. "Boots With Wings" is classic Lewis -- a pop tune from the other side of the mind. UUUU is a schizophrenic seething/soothing masterpiece of a past/present hybrid, equally at home in the club, the home, and the mind. Photography by Antonio Curcetti. Recorded and mixed at Aeriel Studios, Brechfa by Thighpaulsandra; Mastered by Sarah Register. Track listing same as double-LP with bonus track "Electric Blanket" previously available on the UUUU 12" (EMEGO 239X-EP).

Two new tracks from UUUU, featuring members of Coil, Wire, and Tomaga. The motorik music hinted at on UUUU (EMEGO 239LP, 2017) is given space to unfold here. "Electric Blanket" chugs along with perpetual percussion, blankets of feedback and state-of-the-art electronics all embedded with a spectral melody that moves into more mystical ambient planes. "Nice Setting" places a strange short spoken narrative at the center of a shifting sonic landscape of skittering electronic debris and a deep shifting sea of sound. A vibraphone holds proceedings together as well. UUUU are Edvard Graham Lewis, Valentina Magaletti, Matthew Simms, andThighpaulsandra.
