An example of such a hymn is Sappho’s devotional love poem “Hymn to Aphrodite,” an intimate plea and dialogue. “Kink” here refers to material ruin spiritual (bypassing) or “mend-narrative” kinks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAiry rave beats pulled out of the ether. Cat-like purrs in the range of self-repair. Poetry is read to a click track, pitched up or put through the vacuum tube. Sounds and rhythms are grafted together by search engine sonics. Field recordings from a garden evoke lived experiences, places, spills and “windfalls” — juicy pears bounce off the hot tin roof, the rattle of poppy seeds inside desiccated flower heads, the hum of surrounding machinery and the crackle of eggshells meeting soil and seashells. Expanses of time and location are expanded on by stock-free sound effects that augment this fantasy — church bells and oscillating pitch and siren. Beats feed the body, forward. Drama is evoked through the harmonic doubling of vocals to create a harmonic effect akin to a chorus. The music sits on a spectrum, not background in character but interactive and narrative, adding an expanse of time and location, imagining the feeling of being in the bathroom at a nightclub, and the liveliness of a voice memo while wiping mascara away from the eyes onto denim jeans.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-about\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-credits\"\u003ereleased October 16, 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKletic Kink was composed and recorded on the territories of the (Musqueam), (Squamish) and selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations (Vancouver) and on the land of the Syilx people of the Okanagan Nation (Vernon and Lake Country).
