about

Cousin Carl pops its head out of the kooky-vibe sand once more with the first instalment of left-field various artist curations. Blending serene Mediterranean sampling with bizarre hardware workouts, Family Photo Vol. 1 showcases undiscovered talents and lowercase artists from across the globe.

UK based Kinway, the release's orchestrator, contributes with 'Untitled (Max's Flatmate)'. A pairing of matured pads and suitably chugging beats create a wonderfully pensive atmosphere that is to be enjoyed in the company of anything: household pet or dearest friend.

Next in the hot seat is the second producer hailing from the United Kingdom is Milesybwoy (it took a few attempts to learn that spelling off by heart) with the comforting blanket that is 'Play It for Me'. A tuneful motif serenades our ears with the helping hand of a tender drum pattern. Something to drink a chilled glass of elderflower to on a balcony dappled in shade.

Proceeding the tangerine flavoured Milesybwoy is California's Solotape: a genius of hardware. 'Dog Tag', is his brief but so vey flavoursome kooky jam. Specially recorded for this release, Solotape employs the use of wildly flailing synths and truly whimsical artefacts. All perfectly complemented with a well-tightened bottom end.

Returning once again to Cousin Carl, our dear friend Voyd delivers a nebulous piece 'She Muvs She' that woos the listener with an undisturbed leitmotif. It glides past ear-shot with upmost elegance. A jewell...in short.

The final contribution is from the French VSLDS. 'Angle 637' is a progressive rhythmic and melodic workout that glides between abstraction and clarity. Celestial thoughts are not uncommon when listening to this composition.

In summary, this release is an eclectic culmination of placidity, composure and eccentricity. This combination of traits is for certain to be expected in volumes to follow. Watch this space ladies and gentleman...watch this space.
