Martha Skye Murphy: Forgive (Um 2024).
“Forgive” cierra Um, el debut de Martha Skye Murphy, con una delicadeza que contrasta con los pasajes más teatrales y abruptos del álbum. Junto a claire rousay, la artista londinense reduce la música a unos motivos de piano lentos y vulnerables, rodeados por zumbidos, grabaciones ambientales y sonidos de una intimidad casi doméstica. Las notas parecen surgir desde el interior de una habitación o de un recuerdo incompleto, parcialmente cubiertas por el ruido y por una distancia que nunca termina de desaparecer.
La pieza ha sido destacada por la manera en que entierra sus figuras de piano entre grabaciones terrosas de dictáfono, murmullos luminosos y pequeñas interferencias. Esa mezcla de fragilidad y extrañeza convierte el espacio sonoro en algo inestable, capaz de pasar de lo cercano a lo inquietante sin perder su contención. La presencia de claire rousay resulta decisiva: su sensibilidad para transformar ruidos cotidianos, conversaciones lejanas y accidentes acústicos en materia emocional encaja de forma natural con el universo de Murphy.
Más que representar un perdón definitivo, “Forgive” parece detenerse en el instante en que el dolor sigue presente, pero ya no quedan fuerzas para continuar luchando contra él. No hay una gran resolución ni un crescendo liberador, sino una aceptación lenta y ambigua de la fragilidad. Después de un disco construido sobre la tensión entre lo íntimo y lo extraño, la pieza termina en una zona intermedia, cercana y distante al mismo tiempo, como una despedida pronunciada en voz demasiado baja.

Atoms 1 (2) (Molecule)
Atoms are the building blocks of ordinary matter. According to dictionary.com: “anything extremely small”
I am SO excited to introduce you to my brand new series of music called “atoms”: tiny pieces of music inspired by small and beautiful things! When I see something striking, I’ll capture a video of it, then write a short piece of new music for that moment. Tiny film scores, if you will. Basically, I want to musically follow Mary Oliver’s beautiful “instructions for living a life: pay attention. be astonished. tell about it.”
Each “atom” song and video will be roughly 1 minute in length, which compliments our social media digital age (and short attention spans) and will be released spontaneously! First as posts on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, etc. Shortly after, each “atom” will be widely available on Spotify, Apple Music, etc.
In the same way that seeing something beautiful in the middle of my day feels kind of like an oasis, a tiny chance to catch my breath, the hope for “atoms” is to offer up that same meditative feeling in your Insta timeline or TikTok feed, or in the middle of your next “doom scroll”... or when you’re way deep down a YouTube rabbit hole.
