Schwet with Holy Tongue and Ladr Ache

**Schwet presents:** **Holy Tongue feat. Dali de Saint Paul** \[AD 93, Amidah] Holy Tongue are a trio composed of Valentina Magaletti, Susumu Mukai, and Al Wootton. Accomplished musicians in their own right, they create expansive rhythmic music that moves freely through dub, trance, post-punk, free improvisation and cinematic psychedelia. Such a dynamic energy and force is mapped across a trilogy of critically acclaimed EPs, their debut album Deliverance and Spiritual Warfare and their collaborative album with dub-pioneer Shackleton. The trio recorded a series of improvisations in the Swiss Alps and London. Built on the foundation of vintage drum machines and instinctive interplay they created compositions where no stylistic borders apply. The record melts and the musicians’ instruments synergise, with a rawness added with featured vocals from collaborator and experimental vocalist Dali de Saint Paul on two tracks.

With éclats z, their latest recorded offering, new canons arise that belong to no place or genre. Between the layers of chant, other voices turn up in old tongues and secret languages, gliding alongside pipes and electronic warps, pulsing in time with the granularity of choice. Recorded at their headquarters in La Cheminée, the living textures that emerge are sonic libations as much as modern lullabies, inhabiting zones of ancient passages and timeless exploration.
