Two new releases on Box Emissions:
Declan Synnott - Assistance is Futile The first solo release of Declan Synnott (Siorai Geimhreadh/mvestle). Named after a misheard self service machine, the basis of this tape comes from recordings of Tesco, Paul St. Cork, with subtle synthesised sounds arranged around these. A loose theme ties together these three tracks, all representing potential aspects to the experience of the individual in a supermarket; banality and isolation delivered through mass production and convenience. https://declansynnott.bandcamp.com/ Katie O’Neill and Luxury Mollusc - K/LM/NO A collaborative release between Dublin based musicians Katie O'Neill and Luxury Mollusc. Working solo, Katie O'Neill's work moves from stripped down guitar and voice to harsh noise, always maintaining a strong focus on introspection. Luxury Mollusc has been making harsh noise for a number of years, maintaining a strong tactile element to the sound, often using pieces of found material as primary sound sources. Working together on K/LM/NO, these approaches work together to create a release that is both intensely personal and direct and also representative of a distant, murky otherness; swirling noise, disembodied voice and shattered guitar phrases. https://boxemissions.bandcamp.com/album/k-lm-no
