Their music takes in elements of midwest-emo, math rock, shoegaze, and moments
of hyper-driven experimental electronic production which has seen them featured on
recordings by Skepta (48 hours), Halsey (The Great Impersonator) amongst others.
Tonally they balance moments of softness and abrasion, chaos and control,
suspended somewhere between the real and surreal.
'Scattered sunlight, broken glass', es.cher's first physical release, is a collage of
emotional snapshots, held together by texture and tone. The project's title is inspired
by a quote about evoking imagery through vivid details from Russian playwright and
short story writer Anton Chekhov, in a letter to his brother:
"In descriptions of nature, one must seize on small details, grouping them so that
when the reader closes his eyes he gets a picture. For instance, you'll have a moonlit
night if you write that on the mill dam a piece of glass from a broken bottle glittered
like a bright little star, and that the black shadow of a dog or a wolf rolled past like a
ball."
This image - of something broken, reflecting light - is at the heart of Scattered
sunlight, broken glass, like experiencing music through a refracted cosmic curtain in
some liminal space. An existential meander, its story unfolds in a dreamlike world
where memories and fantasy blur together, both as vivid as each other.
Tracks: Breath, feels short / held, liVed / ____, close to you. / broken glass / if,, /
Luna, / easy to forget. / (wait here) / the party !
