In space no one can hear your skin slowly melt off the bones because you touched the wrong space rock. Space is infinite, buddy, everybody’s got other shit to do, and they definitely do not have time to sit around and figure out whether your skin is sloughing off or not. Here’s my advice: leave the space rock-touching to the professionals. They’ve got years of experience on you. They know exactly where to put their fingers.
Case in point, Christelle Gualdi a.k.a. Stellar OM Source, who is both a master of the analog synth and of space rock-handling protocols. She’s got a new full-length called Joy One Mile coming out June 11 on RVNG Intl. which is the next in a long and getting longer line of full-lengths, singles, and CD-Rs over the past several years. The album reportedly follows the more beat-driven sound that she first started to develop on last year’s Image Over Image 12-inch. This sound is a bit of a shift from the likes of 2010’s Exises and is no doubt a result of the recent extra-terrestrial influence on Gualdi’s process. Preceding the full-length’s release, RVNG will also drop a 12-inch single, “Elite Excel” (listen below), on May 14 that features a remix from the space rock Padawan Kassem Mosse. Keep sharp, Kassem! Those rocks are treacherous!
