Looks like Ahnnu is back in full force! After having just released two new non-album tracks via SoundCloud — “Kazu” and “Pe5” — the L.A. producer (a.k.a. Leland Jackson a.k.a. cakedog) has dropped details about his latest release. It’s titled World Music, and it features 12 new tracks + 5 remixes by the likes of Andrew Pekler (who, by the way, released one of our favorite albums this year), Matthewdavid, Nerftoss, and more. Here’s what Ahnnu had to say about the release:
World Music introduces a series of themes which represent various styles and likenesses I’ve adopted in my growth as a sound artist living in the digital age. In respect to my environment, I wanted to create a body of sound-work that is transient in nature. Each track was arranged as separate entities and are holistic in the sense that they are intended to inspire an experience of indifference within a space of perpetual sonic motion. “World Music” describes the continuous sensory shift of both meditative neglect and cognitive sophistication when active within a (digitally) connected culture.
Love it! World Music is out September 3 on Leaving Records. Pour yourself some scotchka and check out album track “Shame” here:
