Black Editions Presents L**oscil / Lawrence English** and **Teasips (Angela Frances Wilson)**.

Loscil (Scott Morgan) and Lawrence English present a live AV edition of their collaborative album Colours of Air (kranky, 2023). Drawing from the rich palette of pipe organ sounds sourced for the album, the duo process, rearrange, remix and supplement with live, adaptive visuals bringing new perspectives to their recorded work.

United by a shared interest in the provocative promise of harmony and pulse, and the unyielding aspiration of brutalist architectural forms, loscil (Scott Morgan) and Lawrence English’s Colours Of Air for kranky is their ﬁrst joint oﬀering. Drawing the entirety of the album's sound materials from a century old pipe organ, the recordings draw on a methodology that is equal parts devolution and iteration. Working to extract the full breath of the organ, and through doing so honour the intensely rich sources that the instrument produces, Morgan and English’s approaches transform the instrument’s pipes and mechanics. This reframing of the instrument reveals a refracted perspective that celebrates the dynamic and timbral capacities of the organ. The results are undulating, saturated and porous, creating a sense of the pieces open ever outward, inviting audiences to become consumed within an ever exhaling breath of sound.

*"The album is lush and oblique—an approachable standout in two daunting catalogs.”* - Pitchfork

*“...this album beautifully evoke(s) what I would imagine light ﬁltering through stained glass would sound like if I had been blessed with synesthesia.”* - Brainwashed

**Lawrence English** is an artist, composer and curator based in Australia. Working across an array of aesthetic investigations, English’s work explores the politics of perception and prompts questions of field, agency and memory. English utilises a variety of approaches including visceral live performance and site-specific installation to create work that invites audiences to consider their relationship to listening, place and embodiment. Over the past decade he has worked with sound as a medium for embodied experience and is determined to share his interests in the transformative and sensorial transgressive possibilities of sound. He is a Sidney Myer Creative fellow, was awarded an outstanding doctorial thesis award in conjunction with his PhD in 2017 and has been supported by the Mike Kelley Foundation for his public artwork project in Los Angeles, Seirá. In 2022, he has been appointed the Annual Honouree by the Institute Of Modern Art.

**Angela Frances Wilson** is an interdisciplinary artist, and composer with a practice built at the intersection of healing art, and improvisational music. Using digital and analog mediums, she investigates modes of perception, and the impact of uncertain space. Ang's lowercase sound composition/improvisation blurs the lines between noise, and free jazz. Under the moniker **Teasips**, she explores sonic space as an expansion of self and reality. She is currently creating work, and performing in Los Angeles & Europe
