1 week agoJulianna Barwick and Mary Lattimore: Tragic Magic review | Safi Bugel's experimental album of the month
Tragic Magic, the pair's first collaborative album, evidences this bond: born out of a short series of improv sessions in Paris, it's a wonderfully immersive set of new age and ambient tracks, where Barwick's airy, reverbed vocals and atmospheric synth washes interweave with, and accentuate, Lattimore's twinkling harp. The artwork for Tragic Magic The album sessions took place shortly after last year's California wildfires, which the two musicians experienced as residents. Accordingly, tragedy and hope cut through the dreamlike haze of these unfurling compositions.
