Emma-Kate Matthews is a London-based multidisciplinary artist, composer and architect and released the Far Flung EP on Algebra Records at the end of 2020 as a series of limited edition transparent lathe cut 12"s with handmade textile artwork and audio-reactive visuals. Far Flung is a complex collage of dance floor adjacent electronica that gets you thinking and moving.
Emma-Kate's artwork for 'Dreams Again' merges footage of a digitally simulated cloth falling through space, with footage generated by artificial intelligence using a GAN (Generative Adversarial Network) and has been longlisted for the 2021 Lumen Prize for art and technology.
Each remix includes new video art by Emma-Kate.
The remixes are being released once per week until the album is released in full on the 26th November 2021 with remixes from Heavenly Stems, Casually Here, Dampé, Eye Measure, Julia-Sophie, Sunplus, Ben McDonnell and Emma-Kate Matthews herself.
The Far Flung EP explores the contrasting styles of synthesised versus acoustic sounds, field recordings versus musical motifs and digital versus analogue techniques for producing and manipulating sounds. Eerie drones are interwoven with complex upbeat rhythms, deep layered harmonies and erratic melodies to form an elastic sonic fabric which oscillates between moments of lightweight sonic ambiguity and highly-charged musical statements.
