“The cello is a sort of melancholic instrument with a light-weight ethereal spirit. When the sound is flattened into digital processes, with shifted frequencies and time stretching I’m making an attempt to provide it much more of these qualities. Typically I’m distancing myself from it, so it turns into a chunk of discarded particles that has soul in it, a down-sampling. Or different instances, it’s making an attempt to maximise the current tense within the act of taking part in, and collapse that vivid colour right into a burnished, photocopied sort of sound,” Coates says of the forthcoming launch, which is “all about inaccurate transmissions from our recollections, overlaid with feelings from different sources”.
Accompanying the album’s announcement is the Hannah Perry–directed video for brand spanking new music “Extremely Legitimate”. Throb, Shiver, Arrow of Time serves because the follow-up to 2020’s Skins n Slime and soundtrack work together with Aftersun and The Stranger.
