Introducing Eulo Cramps, Call Super's fourth album that sits at the epicenter of a multifaceted project titled Tell Me I Didn't Choose This that draws on poetry, auto-biographical writing, painting and music. Melting improv, free jazz and the distinctive sound Call Super has perfected over the years with the helping hand of the invention of their "eharp," Eulo Cramps is a channel where the producer-artist exorcised trauma and epiphanies around their own coming-of-age story. The paintings series (which will be exhibited at a later date) tied to Tell Me I Didn't Choose This express these ideas more deeply, the canvas acting as a physical space for self-interrogation. One to usually remain in solitude whilst producing, on this new album Seaton breaks this rule and invites the distinctive voices of Julia Holter and Eden Samara to add their ethereal elemental resonance on tracks "Sapling" and "Illumina" -- the latter already noted as a Pitchfork favorite. Using their voices as a portal into Seaton's own personal sphere, they found respite in the falsetto of Holter and Samara. Whilst on "Goldwood" Elke Wardlaw lends her dulcet tones with a passage of spoken word that ebbs over Seaton's trickling melodies. The saxophone, played by Seaton's father, finds itself at home once again on this record too. A riveting and personal exploration, this album is Seaton's most powerful and distinctive to date.
