welcoming the equal balance of light + dark in the northern hemisphere ~~~~
epistle came through me like an opened window, first day of spring. a voice memo made in my living room, i was singing into a fan, body felt full and light. i made it ages ago as a moment just for myself to remember and love and i share it now as a note from the liminal. a bridge to the new live ep, rarefied air, released this april, on the 23rd, via tibet street records.
~~~
pinned by various names
under a weight, i try to escape
the paper, the page
the weight of each phrase
next to a name
moon-spun, the infant one
under the day, it's all about your breath
and your breathing
a simple appeasing --
whisper a name and i'll tell you i've lost it
whisper a name and i'll tell you i'm fine
tell me the same but you show me you've lost it
tell me today and i'll tell you you lied
"Brooke occupies a haunted netherworld of equal amounts light and dark. Creating in long stretches of 'nature aloneness', her live performances are rare and intentional since 2009.
Epyllion is slow and ragged. It’s sad like the best Julie Doiron records, it shivers like the best Microphones records, and it’s easily the best thing to grace the review shelf this year."
