about

If you've ever felt overloaded by the presence of other people, you'll know what "Haunted by People" means. In those moments when it's all a bit too much worrying if something you said was misunderstood, or you can't stop thinking about something someone said at work, we might describe ourselves as being "haunted" by the living. Perhaps we're having a general feeling of overload due to being amongst so many others shuffling about their lives. Or maybe we can't stop thinking about how poorly human beings are caring for our Earth. The sound of emotional overload is what these tracks are made of.

Part one is a droning environment that aims to somehow take the stress and use it as a sonic tool to cause catharsis. Part two takes the textures from the first part and renders them more friendly. The tones are tamed down and turned into an 808 jam that, while not necessarily being a good-timey toe-tapper, shift the context into something more manageable.

How does this artist seem to suggest dealing with the stresses of human living? Go straight through it, and use it to make something new.

Last Faith Studio is becoming a new label called Love For Sale. We did what we set out to do with Last Faith Studio, which was to support our Bay Area friends creatively as they moved through a hard time. Now it's time to move forward in a new way.

His pro-collaboration anti-competitive ethos has meant his music has often flown under the radar. But ever since his first album rated highly on Pitchfork, he has had a comfortable international cult following. ... more
