Novi Split: New Songs

Novi Split: New Songs

It’s been at least three years since we’ve heard something new from Novi Split.  David Jerkovich says he’s getting ready to turn a new leaf in 2014 by dusting off these tunes and collecting them in a couple EPs, Creeping Round Your Face and Spare Songs, in anticipation of sharing some newly recorded gems in 2014.  These new songs were recorded with his ace band at his new studio,  The Ocotillio, at Pehrspace in Los Angeles.

Did I mention he’s offering them up for free / $upport?  Check it out:

Rauelsson to Tour in Anticipation of ‘Vora’

Rauelsson is probably best known for intimate guitar and vocal based songs with releases on Hush and even an appearance on the early Sonic Pieces album Portland Stories compiled by Heather Woods Broderick. With this in mind, Vora comes as a surprise in a grandeur way with its mixture of everything from piano solos, orchestrated classical music, synth buildups and even an shoegaze inspired organ piece sounding like Windy & Carl performing in an empty hallway.

Like a coastal dream impossible to differentiate summer for winter, Vora feels like cold winds slowly warming up. Made in the time Raúl moved from Portland, OR back to his native Spain, settling on the east coast, you can hear the influence of the endlessly forcing waves and empty off-season tourist cities left for the remaining few to discover in peace. Vora is a sure win for fans of Deaf Center´s Pale Ravine, Nils Frahm´s more melancholic moments or film musicians such as Philip Glass and Clint Mansell.

Vora is available worldwide June 14th on Sonic Pieces, the elegant Berlin label that is making quite a name for itself with each handmade release.
