HAUSCHILDT, STEVE
DISSOLVI (GHOSTLY INTERNATIONAL)
Label:
GHOSTLY INTERNATIONAL
Formerly member of beloved 00's electronic experimental band Emeralds. Features vocal contributions from Julianna Barwick & GABI.
In search of the sublime, contemporary electronic musician Steve Hauschildt has designed grids and panoramas of sound across multiple releases through the rise and dissolution of his former band, Emeralds, an American touchstone of 2000s home-recorded psychedelic noise music.
Consistent with his solo work is Hauschildt's ability to coil his craft in precise, varied, and distinctly physical forms.
Gently spinning arpeggios converse with post-industrial decay. Sonic fibers sway like pendulums from static melancholy to motorik bliss.
Dissolvi, the artist's first full-length with Ghostly International, engages sublimation from an ontological perspective: by dissociating the self.
Hauschildt steps out from the singular path, for the first time in a traditional studio, to compose and arrange contributions from friends.
As a result, his most collaborative work to date extends a vast, vibrating framework in which to consider the state of being.
