Mali Obomsawin announces “Automatic,” her second solo album, out October 16th via Out Of Your Head Records. Pairing her voice with archival Abenaki recordings processed by turntablist Andrew Broder, the eight-track album grew from a disorienting period following her breakout debut “Sweet Tooth.” Collaborators include Taylor Ho Bynum and guitarist Magdalena Abrego of Deerlady. Title track out now.
Duffy x Uhlmann share “Nylon Waiting Room,” the third and final single from “Hot Creek,” due 14 August on Orindal Records. At fifty-one seconds long and accompanied by a Christina Huang visualiser, it’s the last taste of a record built from two guitars and nothing else, named after a geothermal spring in Mono County, California.
“Allison de Groot & Rich Ruth” started as a plan for Rich Ruth to produce a solo banjo record for de Groot. Over a year in his Nashville studio, it became something else — a collaborative debut where clawhammer banjo runs through loops and delay into synthesizers. Acoustic tradition and electronic texture are inseparable from the first note.
