ethereal, otherworldly and wildly experimental album from Brooklyn based multi-instrumentalist L’Rain. I imagine this is what artsy freaks (complimentary) like Tilda Swinton or Andre 3000 listen to as they start the day.

turrelljames performs as L’Rain and her musical framework is ‘approaching songness.’ Whatever you call it, her music is a weirdly floaty dreamscape with lots of found, manipulated sounds and O% cliches. Heard it on KEXP this morning (another thing I am into) and am smitten.

This album is a brief summary of what it means to be human. Every note comes from another dimension

it sounds like being in an escape room that is painted vividly, garishly, but is crumbling so intensenly you're not sure you'll actually need to orchestrate an escape. this little echoey world and its intricate architecture of rage lullabies and robot clowns might just eject you. but it's fun to play with puzzles anyway!! a very moving and startling experience.

A few thoughts on what makes a good voice note from brendonholder.substack.com… Every good voice note has a hook. For me, close friends will know that my hook is one introductory note in which I say two words: “Okay, so.” Record. Send. This is a warning for the receiver of the voice note. Take a bio break, go to a private area, grab some popcorn, and put in your headphones. You’re about to go on a ride. Pauses and cliffhangers. I have been known to end a voice note on a cliffhanger and leave for a couple of hours before I do another voice note. I promise this isn’t entirely for suspense. It gives the receiver(s) a chance to catch up and respond. I enjoy when a voice note can act as a substitute for an actual phone call rather than be a voicemail dump that you listen to at the end of the day. As a result, I prefer to voice note when I know a captive audience is waiting. I genuinely love it when I drop the voice note and can see the bubbles of who is responding and to what part. Get creative. Recently, I have been experimenting with a multitude of imagery to supplement voice notes like here when I was explaining the connection between a dream I had to someone’s business I had no reason to be in. Sometimes a jury just needs an exhibit to lean the verdict in your favour. The voice. I mean, duh. The message’s timbre is guided by our tone, odd turn-of-phrases, stutters and laughter, bloopers and cut-offs. A capsule of your humanity flashes and then is no longer there, evaporating from your phone as soon as you’re finished listening. The ephemeral nature of a voice note feels as intimate as a cupped whisper from your friend. It’s precisely yours until it’s no one’s.
