Colin Self Respite _ Levity For The Nameless Ghost In Crisis

"respite ün levity for the nameless ghost in crisis", aka "rünL4nGc", is Colin Selfü's third full length album, following the acclaimed "Siblings" (2018) and its companion EP "Orphans" (2019).In "rünL4nGc" the Berlin and New York based artist, composer, and puppeteerü's music travels seamlessly from soaring, uncanny pop vocals to immaterial experimental electronics and hard-hitting dance floor rhythms. Radiant, limitless beauty and boundless, inescapable terror are one and the same. Incorporating Selfü's long standing practice of dollmaking, and drawing upon a conscious exile that allowed the artist to settle into conversation with lost souls on other planes of existence, "rünL4nGc" is an integrated vision of the artist's eclectic practice.Singing in Polari, a forgotten form of slantwise English used by queer subcultures for centuries to evade detection, Self performs for our departed teachers and friends, and for the rest of us, ready to commune with uncanny spirits.For fans of Perfume Genius, Björk, Holly Herndon, Psychic TV, Oneohtrix Point Never, Lyra Pramuk, Bat For Lashes, SOPHIE, Talk Talk.
