𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘴𝘮𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘦𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘭, by Natalia Panzer, co-published by blush & Lunchtime Gallery. Available now at Bandcamp, Boomkat, and Good Press. 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘴𝘮𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘦𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘭 is Natalia Panzer's first published solo work – wide in both reference and form. Originally composed as a score for a live set in Glasgow, it occupies the space between album, audiobook, and the soundtrack to an imagined film. Natalia's narration spirals through themes of light, movement and fabric, colour, water and dance – a response to three works: a ballet by William Forsythe, a fashion presentation by Carol Christian Poell, and a documentary on Japanese fashion designer Issey Miyake. Constructed around an elusive mosaic of samples, she searches for the absolute in cascading, dreamy prose. Her narration moves as a guiding presence, fracturing into the freedom of possibility, in a dance of chance, repetition, and change.  Many thanks to Ellen Siebers for lending her gorgeous painting, 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘮, as the cover artwork.  Edition of 100 Cassette & Publication Written and performed by Natalia Panzer Mixed by @mattemattik Mastered by @loris_s_sarid Design by @mushetofernandez Artwork by @e_siebs courtesy of the artist and Ingleby, Edinburgh, photo by John McKenzie  Cassette jcard printed by Sunday’s Print Service Cassette tip-in printed by Deadly Digital Publication printed by Sunday’s Print Service Publication cover printed by The Passenger Press

This project launches with its first event in collaboration with Glasgow record-label blush, to celebrate the release of the forthcoming edition, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘴𝘮𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘦𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘭, by Natalia Panzer. The evening brings together two artists working across literature, music and performance. Natalia Panzer is primarily a writer, but her practice extends across radio, DIY publishing and spoken word. 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘴𝘮𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘦𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘭 is Natalia’s first published solo work – wide in both reference and form. Originally composed as a score for a live set in Glasgow, the work was rerecorded and will be released as a tape and publication, in collaboration with blush and Lunchtime Gallery. Operating somewhere between an album, an audiobook, and the soundtrack to an imagined film, it calls to the playful, quietly ecstatic spoken word of Robert Ashley and the freeform collaged voice of Paddy McAloon's timeless 𝘐 𝘛𝘳𝘢𝘸𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘔𝘦𝘨𝘢𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘻. Panzer's narration spirals through themes of light, movement and fabric, colour, water and dance – a response to three works: a ballet by William Forsythe, a fashion presentation by Carol Christian Poell, and a documentary on Japanese fashion designer Issey Miyake. Constructed around an elusive mosaic of samples, Panzer searches for the absolute in cascading, dreamy prose. Her narration moves as a guiding presence, fracturing into the freedom of possibility, in a dance of chance, repetition, and change. Natalia will perform the work live, joined by Nadia Marcus for additional contextual poetry readings. Nadia is a poet, designer, DJ and co-editor of TABLOID Press. The event takes place at Salon Am Moritzplatz, Berlin, a short walk from Moritzplatz U. Wednesday, 20 May, 7pm Suggested donation upon entry 7-10eur. The edition will be available to buy at the event. @lynnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn1 @nadia.d.marcus @blush_tbc @lunchtimegallery @salonammoritzplatz Art: @w______ren & @elysiatuohy

Betty Hammerschlag, Fake Girl, a beautiful set of abstracted folk diversions, out now on blush <3 The album plays like a mixing board of textures handled with a dubwise sense of space, with brittle acid folk riffs dancing in circles around bedroom murmurs. Hammerschlag's voice jumps and dips as the instrumentation blurs into a wall of weightless sound. Like ML Buch's era-defining 'Suntub', 'Fake Girl' hovers between the real world and a laptop-powered digital fantasy, anchored by its heart-wrenching melodies and drybrushed by uncanny artifacts.  Cassette available at Bandcamp and @boomkatonline blush03 Edition of 135 UV print on case and shell Mastered by @loris_s_sarid Riso print by @good_press

‘Circlesss’ streaming now, from the forthcoming album ‘Fake Girl’, out next week on blush 🎸🤍 On 'Fake Girl', Betty Hammerschlag twists folk songs through her shimmering palette of contemporary pop motifs. It’s her most stripped-back work yet; songs float in a daydream on the barest essence of her wistful, tender vocals and glistening guitar phrases. Melded with the autotuned voice and gooey melancholia of new ambient emo, it’s all coated with a subtle strangeness and lucidity. Yet through the mystique, there's a potency to these songs that hits deep, more beautiful and anomalous with every listen.  🍂

Natalia will perform a new hybrid solo work titled 'the loss of small detail' 𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘂𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘀𝘁 is the solo project of musician and performance artist Lois Daniels — the mind behind ‘The Enga Project’ and one half of the newly formed freak-folk duo ‘vaseline’. combining ambient textures, avant-garde experimentation, and wordless vocal fragments, her work draws the listener into a world that is at once deeply intimate and subtly uncanny. 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗜𝗜𝗜 & 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁 𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗶𝗻 are a recently formed Glasgow-based duo, who navigate a tangled weave of harp, percussion, electronics and voice. their work explores delicate threads and sudden ruptures, where chaos coils around fragility, and entanglement becomes both method and outcome.
