With contributions from close allies ULLA and ULTRAFOG. A new album from NAEMI, aka EXAEL, celebrated as a key artist in today's experimental electronic sound scene via labels like WEST MINERAL and 3XL, has arrived! Honing a fuzz-drenched approach steeped in dream pop and shoegaze, this is a sweet, sentimental work that leans into band-style sound more than ever before. Mastered by RASHAD BECKER.
Track List
The second release on 28912, the new label run by ULLA, who also guests here! A solo album from German sound artist NAEMI, known not only for solo work but also for collaborative projects like GHOSTRIDE THE DRIFT and HOODIE! Featuring shoegaze/post-rock cuts such as "Puer Aeturnus" (sample2), which showcases guitar from Japanese artist KOUHEI FUKUZUMI (better known as ULTRAFOG), it's a gem soaked in sentiment, fusing his signature delicate sound manipulation and ambient touches with a roaring, weightless band sound recalling the post-MBV neo-shoegaze movement of the 2000s and beyond.
