Kara-Lis Coverdale // Changes in Air LP [COLOR]

※2/6リリースです

カナダのアンビエント作家Kara-Lis Coverdaleが、2026年2月にノルウェー・オスロのオールジャンルレーベルSmalltown Supersoundからリリースするレコードです。

ピアノやオルガン、モジュラーを用いたネオクラシカル・アンビエント〜アンビエントドローン5曲を収録。白盤です。

以下、レーベルによる解説です。

"『Changes In Air』は、エレクトリック・オルガン、モジュラー・シンセシス、ピアノによる5部構成の作品である。このアルバムは、オスロのスカールヴェンに設置されたインスタレーション作品から転用された。スカールヴェンは広大なフィヨルドに面した浮遊式サウナで、薪の火と太陽熱で温められる。アルバムの編曲には5つの「素材」が影響を与えている：木、水、太陽、ガラス、金属。Coverdaleは2019年にマルケット（モントリオール）で『Changes In Air』を作曲、演奏、録音し、今年完成させた。

実験的エレクトロニクスとミニマリズムの伝統の交差点における音楽的革新で知られるCoverdaleの作品は、音色の深い探求で高い評価を得ている。Smalltown Supersoundより今年リリースされた三部作は、2017年の『Grafts』、2015年の『Aftertouches』（Sacred Phrases）、2014年の『A 480』（Constellation Tatsu）以来となる彼女の主要な新作である。"

Smalltown Supersound:

"In May, composer, musician, and producer Kara-Lis Coverdale released her first new album in eight years, From Where You Came. It was followed by her second album of 2025, A Series of Actions in a Sphere of Forever, in September. Today, Coverdale details her third full-length release of the year, Changes In Air, out 21 November via Smalltown Supersound, and unveils its lead single ‘Curve Traces of Held Space’.

Changes In Air is a work for electric organ, modular synthesis, and piano in five sections. The album was adapted from a work originally written for installation at Skarven in Oslo, a floating sauna facing the expansive fjord which is heated by wood fire and solar radiation. Five “materials” influence the album's arrangements: wood, water, sun, glass, and metal. Coverdale composed, played, and recorded Changes In Air alone in Marquette (Montreal) in 2019 and completed it this year.

Known for her musical innovations at the intersection of experimental electronics and minimalist traditions, Coverdale’s releases have garnered acclaim for their deep exploration of timbre. This year’s trilogy of albums released by Smalltown Supersound are Coverdale’s first major new works since Grafts (2017), Aftertouches (2015, Sacred Phrases), and A 480 (2014, Constellation Tatsu).

Coverdale has performed concert halls, clubs, and festivals throughout Europe, North America, Asia, and Australia headlining and touring with Big Thief, Caribou, Gagaku Ensemble and Floating Points (including as a part of his Promises ensemble at The Hollywood Bowl in LA). She has previously collaborated with with Actress, Yasuaki Shimizu, Caterina Barbieri and Lyra Pramuk and has created compositions for film, theatre, dance, symphonic instrumentation, and installation, including Cello Octet Amsterdam, Hamilton Philharmonic Orchestra, Vanemuine Theatre, NYC Contemporaneous Ensemble and Ludens Choir with pipe organ a connective tissue throughout much of her work."
