Ama//Mizu - Discordant In Colour

AMA//MIZU is the newest project from multi-instrumentalist Douglas Pisterman aka Magoya. Inspired by the escapist rhythm of electronic music and the vivid narratives of folk, between the loud flicker of a light and the overarching silence. This dichotomy is where lies AMA//MIZU's core, reflective and yet hyperactive.

Seeking inspiration as diverse as Dirty Projectors, I:Cube and Scott Walker, AMA//MIZU is defined by a desire to seek authentic and unusual sounds. Whether it is a circuit bended drum machine or pieces of wood, anything becomes a tool in a South London based bedroom studio. It is from the confinement of the producer's small space, surrounded by urban settings, that the songs take shape before being enhanced and deconstructed by a trio of live musicians, and finally brought to life in the mixing room, with the complicity of Ash Workman (Metronomy, Christine And The Queen...). Rising noir-indie-folk talent EERA even lends her voice to EP closer 'Fil De Lune', a captivating down-tempo ballad tainted in jazzy horns and sang in French.

The EP is released on 12 Vinyl, with original artwork by IIO a.k.a. Yoann Pisterman.
