Limited edition indies-only gatefold 'Calder Red' double vinyl

“My heart is loud,” Julia Holter sings on her sixth
album, ‘Something In The Room She Moves’, following
an inner pulse. The Los Angeles songwriter’s past
work has often explored memory and dreamlike future,
but her latest album resides more in presence:
“There’s a corporeal focus, inspired by the complexity
and transformability of our bodies,” Holter says. Her
production choices and arrangements form a
continuum of fretless electric bass pitches in
counterpoint with gliding vocal melodies, while
glistening YamahaCS-60 lines entwine warm winds
and reeds. “I was trying to create a world that’s fluid
sounding, water like, evoking the body’s internal sound
world, ”Holter says of her flowing harmonic universe.

“What is delicious and what is omniscient?” she sings
on ‘Spinning’, the album’s incantatory centrepiece.
“What is the circular magic I’m visiting?” Or as Holter
put it: “It’s about being in the passionate state of
making something: being in that moment, and what is
that moment?” She found it anew on ‘Something In
The Room She Moves’, singing in somatic
frequencies.
