Pearson Sound Details Debut Album on Hessle Audio Pearson Sound has dribbled out a few more details about his self-titled debut, due out in March, explaining that he’s been harnessing feedback loops between his machines to create the nine tracks on the album. “I had a signal chain set up that I was really happy with, and I started sending my machines through the same processes,” says David Kennedy. “A lot of it was made by feeding the the same sounds between two different pieces of equipment and they’d end up feeding back between each other and snowballing. On some tracks it’s about harnessing that and taking it to the brink before it disintegrates, and some of them are about just letting it go full-blown out of control.” The label describes the record as “characteristically minimalist in approach” and says Kennedy’s “exploratory studio process” resulted in ”striking contrasts: bold, stark and visceral, yet also subtle, harmonically complex and deceptively playful.” http://www.factmag.com/2015/01/14/pearson-sound-details-debut-album-on-hessle-audio/

Sufjan Stevens Announces New Album Carrie & Lowell In the nearly five years since Sufjan Stevens released The Age of Adz, he's worked with the ballet, scored a rodeo documentary, released more Christmas music, and released an album and EP with his side project Sisyphus. This year, he's releasing a new full-length. Carrie & Lowell is out March 30 in Europe and March 31 in North America via Asthmatic Kitty. According to a press release, the album was named for Stevens' mother and stepfather, and its 11 songs are about "life and death, love and loss, and the artist's struggle to make sense of the beauty and ugliness of love." It's also billed as a return to Stevens' "folk roots," according to the press release. [video=youtube;3vj9s0U2U2o] http://pitchfork.com/news/58019-sufjan-stevens-announces-new-album-carrie-lowell/
