Today we release Nouveaux Contes, the debut full-length album by Montréal-based artist Dumb Chamber, on Éditions Appærent.

As a longtime member of numerous projects, including the group Salon Privé and the collective label Bete, Montréal based musician Dumb Chamber now presents his debut solo-album, Nouveaux Contes. Working in a neoclassical tradition with a sample and sequence-based approach, Nouveaux Contes is temporally and mechanically opaque. At once orchestral, soupy, accelerated, fevered, meandering from background to squarely foregrounded, lush, and nocturnal, this album is infused with a sense of melodrama and a narrative impulse. Characters populate Dumb Chamber’s work and despite pervasive abstraction, the cumulative effect is one of following familiar personnages, at times accompanied and other times solitary, through unfamiliar spaces.

01. Tropical Solution [03:33]
02. Fromagism [04:48]
03. Le jardin [05:14]

Stream / download / preorder

A long, tracking shot of miniature people as they descend a set of outdoor stairs covered with vines. Late-summer, blush-coloured blossoms so full that thin stalks bend under their own weight. Dew has just dried from the grass. This group of people walk slowly, evenly, one at a time, as if choreographed in their precision. Delicate clouds decorate the edge of the afternoon sky. Due to the calculated normalcy of the scene before us, we infer that something isn’t quite right. Then, movement: the people begin to blur, the sky goes grey, and everything we see duplicates, and then again, until finally the whole garden indexes into infinity. Multiples into multiples, each petal, eyelash, pebble copied from a copy. By the time the camera stops moving, the scene is unrecognizable, a mix of originals and replicas, echoes of an echo.

Starting at the end: like an origin story unfolding in real time, “Ancestral Manoeuvre” reveals the hand of composition, without tricks or obfuscation. Just as the ongoing construction-as-elaboration of ancestry is necessarily incomplete, here we are placed inside a sequence of sounds that feel fragmented and personal. Links are formed, the story changes, people arrive and then disappear, often without explanation. As the song begins to wind-down and we’re granted distance from the initial action, or Ancestral theatrics, it becomes clear that the perceived drama was in fact much smaller and more manageable than initially believed.

When we follow a train of thoughts far enough, eventually we’ll arrive in the realm of pure imagination. “Fromagism” is this process of moving from real to unreal, as recurring ideas and boring memories interact to form something unbelievable and inimitable. Underneath the track’s deconstructed and serious tone is a wink of knowing. Dumb Chamber often embeds humour camouflaged amongst references, adding to the sum-total layers of a given track. Without fixed meanings, shadows in the hallway could be constructed entirely of toads, or the uncanny sounds that wake you up from sleep could be a cheese talking to itself in the fridge, wondering what it should eat for breakfast the following morning.

‘Behead’ is the second single off of Dahjyn’s upcoming ‘Peace Medal’ album.

Behead starts appropriately as a greeting, an introduction to a callous life born by cold nylon strings and the industrial slog. At first, Dan’s voice takes center stage inviting an audience to ponder and participate
in the worst systems the world has to offer, before offering a warning, “Don’t listen, don’t let them take
your head.” The bottom drops out, gravity passing through a sinkhole of gemlike arpeggios and
percussive acceleration. The forever distant synth pads serve as a pillow for survival and echoes of
purgatorial wonder in equal measure, positing how at rest the head is and how much of it is already
gone.

Good morning!

We're extremely excited today to be announcing a new single and upcoming record from one of our longtime favourite artists, enigmatic New York producer Sharp Veins. His work has had us captivated since being played by Bjork in DJ mixes in ~2016, right through to his always-unpredictable LPs on Glacial Sound and UNO NYC.

Sharp Veins' new album, Temporary Plates Take An Exit, is a road music diary of blown radiators and sunburned maps; a (too) brightly lit collection of Sharp Veins' most accessible music yet. The first single is called "Play Your Stumbler," and sees Sharp Veins wrapping plaintive shoegaze in a crude, diesel bloom of distortion and Casio keyboards.

Temporary Plates Take An Exit will be dropping in full on September 22. For now, enjoy "Play Your Stumbler," and listen loud -- preferably in the cab of a '99 Ford Ranger. On all streaming services and Bandcamp -> link in bio.
