Altered Zones

Following last Spring's "Island Best" video, Holland's Stellar Om Source returns with another gentle flirtation with the cosmos, glimpsed through a pastel gauze of faded pop-cultural references -- musical and visual, sci-fi and quotidian, remembered and remembered only in feel. Zapping between Omni mag animation and the second-hand memory of devouring a pot of chocolate pudding on your childhood porch, Italian DVD-R and VHS label AAVV handles archival imagery in the way that Christelle Gualdi handles her palette of vintage sounds: with a patience and sensitivity that can only stem from deep affection. "Magnetic Depths" and "Rites of Fusion" (featuring a guest appearance by Oneohtrix Point Never) are two tracks from Christelle's much-anticipated Trilogy Select LP, which should be climbing out of the Olde English Spelling Bee dungeons and into stores later this week.

Trilogy Select LP is available via OESB. Christelle recently published a series of visual pieces in issue 4 of Seattle's I Want You Magazine, the print version of which arrives with a free Stellar Om Source 7". She is also doing a few dates in Europe this week and next. Check them below.
