The Flower and the Vessel

by FĂ©licia Atkinson

Recorded heavily while pregnant on tour in isolated hotel rooms, the French avant-garde composer creates an incredibly tactile, whispering exploration of physical transformation. The album utilizes hushed, ASMR-inducing spoken word, delicate piano chords, and manipulated field recordings. It features a sweeping nineteen-minute collaboration with Sunn O)))'s Stephen O'Malley to close the profound electroacoustic journey.
