Novos Portugueses / 4 - Clothilde - "Twitcher"


Twitcher by Clothilde - Limited Edition Cassette - Purple tape. 35 copies available 

Labareda

released May 25, 2018 

LABAREDA is back with a new tape and release, the seventh. 
The label keeps on pushing and celebrating first works and albums of the most atypical and alien portuguese artists this time with the deep minimalist compositional, (and first) album from Sofia Mestre aka Clothilde. Twitcher was made and shaped using Clothilde’s partner, Hobo, homemade machinery and modulars with each track recorded in one take and filling us up with textures, melodies and sections of zero visible ending points echoing Annea Lockwood, Jessica Rylan, Oliveros, Maryanne Amacher and Radigue in a mesh of primal experimentation and awe. 
52 minutes of deep listening brutalism.
