As we reported recently, Aidan Moffat’s been busy in his L. Pierre guise. He recently released his album The Eternalist through Vine, which you can take a look at/listen to here and he’s got his 2002 album Hypnogogia getting a re-release on September 16 via Melodic Records.
Also on that date and on Melodic, he’s releasing a new EP, Surface Noise, which "pays an affectionate tribute to the wear and tear of overplayed vinyl; the hiss, scratch and pop of records long loved but worn down. It’s the sound of survival, the echoes of a life lived well; moth eaten music of sadness and resilience, of beauty and backbone."
We’re excited to stream the EP’s first track, ‘Movement I’ (of six), a collision of tremulous shards of strings, tape hiss and distant, seismic bass rumblings, forging something that’s washed in undeniable shades of melancholia – have a listen below:
You can pre-order Surface Noise at Melodic’s website.
