Recording for Flying Lotus's Brainfeeder label, Salami Rose Joe Louis blazes a distinctive trail in California's underground where electronic music and jazz converge.
With the songs in 2023's Akousmatikous and this year's collaboration Sarah, SRJL's rhythms get jazzier, the instrumentation fuller, while retaining breathy, Julee Cruise-like sweetness.
The music's levitational feel and smooth propulsion belie lyrics about catastrophic ecological degradation and the dangers of propaganda and disinformation, offering pleasant dystopian sci-fi soundtracks.
Enchanting listeners through understatement and mutedly sparkling tones, Olsen creates an immersive experience that's captivating without being cloying, steering a unique course in dream pop.
