UK label Wisdom Teeth returns with its third long-form offering - Sculpturegardening: a new LP by Mexico City-based artist and producer, Tristan Arp.

Incorporating elements of ambient, glitch, microhouse and downtempo, it's an otherworldly record populated by knotty modular textures, blossoming floral melodies, tight pointillist rhythms and glossy acoustic instrumentation.

The record was born from a process of "collaborating with machines": using modular synthesisers to generate probabilistic melodies and rhythms, with the artist taking on the role of sculptor and curator.

Throughout, the boundaries between the organic and digital are playfully blurred: we hear synthesisers played by guitars; emotive and distinctly human melodies generated by modular circuits; digital percussion drummed by hand; and live cello processed with a digital finish.

The results sometimes recall Roman Flügel at his most colourful, or Benge's meandering synth workouts, and even at times echo the dubbed-out cello experiments of Arthur Russell.

But really sculpturegardening occupies a sonic world of its own, born from a unique web of happy accidents and incidental arrangements.

The record's bright colours and subtle rhythms make it a fitting follow-up to K-LONE's 2020 LP Cape Cira and Facta's 2021 LP Blush, and place it neatly alongside the work of label mates Duckett, Benoit B, Steevio and Iglew.

"With sculpturegardening, my concept was to approach music like gardening. I collaborated with machines inspired by the way a gardener collaborates with the earth.

A gardener creates the conditions for the plants to come to life and develop on their own.

In a similar way, I created a set of conditions and probabilities for the music to make itself.

Who is making the music here? "A sculpture garden to me can be a really beautiful environment of balance between randomness and order--between nature and human interaction.

Things that are either extremely organized or completely random tend to not resonate with us.

On the other hand, something very interesting happens when a balance between the randomness and organization is struck.

I invented this verb sculpturegardening to represent creating with the aim of this balance, and the with the aim of building a world in which each piece is a zone, or a sculpture in a garden." The record will be twinned with a physical iteration - a sound installation at an exhibition curated by Tristan Arp titled Nada Se Pierde; Todo Se Transforma.

The show opens on 9th October in Mexico City at Avant.dev. The physical sculpture garden will be a collaboration with Mexican sculptor Pablo Arellano.

The sound installation will centre around a 4-channel audio system that gives voice to different sculptures and allows visitors to create a mix of the sounds depending on their position in the garden.
