The album is released on AnyOne (CN), the Chinese art company and record label founded by Yannis Zhang and Yumo Wu, and is designed by Passepartout Duo. The design of the cassette summarizes the project as a whole, including machine-generated structures, geometries of weaving, and visual illusions, all distilled into the soy-based inks of the risograph.Įach cassette tape includes a five-fold insert with two color risograph print, available in a limited edition of 150 copies.
Symmetrical compositional ideas spiral out from the centerpiece of Daylighting that bisects the music of the album with its austere process, expanded and explored in each surrounding piece. These collisions explore timbrical, rhythmic, and melodic unison ideas that act as mile markers on listening paths.
The overall structure of the music is built through momentary collisions between layers of sound that exist in parallel dimensions, continuously and independently. Highlighting the potential of the new instruments, the musical process began from the careful shaping of each sound from its visceral fundamentals. These strange machines aesthetically recall imaginary landscapes connected to a trip to the Meili Snow Mountains in China, and inspired the seven tracks of the album.
A new suite of electronic devices that functionally integrate textiles and synthesizer circuits accompanies the two musicians’ familiar set of small portable percussion. In Daylighting, Passepartout Duo continues to explore their fascination with building personalized musical instruments.
