FEATURED ALBUM

The Loneliness Of Carers

by

Gimu

Released November 26th 2024 on Confusāo Records, Brazil

https://confusaorecords.bandcamp.com/album/the-loneliness-of-carers

12 tracks. 1hr 13 mins

This is an immense and emotional album that belies the heartfelt contortions of one who has been, and still is, where the title suggests. It has been a privilege to correspond with Gimu and share aspects of our lives over the past year or so and I guess that might allow me a specific insight, though that said, if you have lived long term with any sort of inner conflict, like me, you will bring your own emotional literacy to this.

And the track titles will immediately resonate too. The despair in them. The resignation in the face of overwhelming love. The recognition of another’s suffering. Those tiny moments of peace or hope amidst the tempest. This album is a deep expression of that turmoil, pouring from a big, beating heart and I can only hope that in doing so, its release releases its creator, at least to some degree, from the loneliness.

The language of this album is achieved through the use of static interference-laden tonality. The balance of signal to noise is exactly where the artistry of Gimu is most powerful. There is a sense that the music of it is struggling, struggling to be recognised, tracing out the rawness of it all.

This can often be achieved through incredibly sonically ‘light’ pieces, such as those that open the album, where the noise static almost completely drowns the music. Almost, but enticingly allowing enough for the mind’s ear to pull together. As each track unfolds, the struggle assumes new positions, like two wrestlers locked in combat. And again Gimu wields the brush artfully, constantly shifting position but keeping up the momentum.

By the time we reach I Remember Fun the whole show has been set back in space and the static noise softens into more of a disintegration while the fuller chords drop you deeper and deeper. The Self Exile Of The Self catches the softness but then sharpens it again and through Quietude and An Inkling 2 builds you up for the final and most expansively substantial track, For Your Volcanoes, Love. A title that for me is as heartbreakingly emotive as the sound itself.

If you want a listen that is fiercely charged and yet fully set in the experimental electronic canon, I commend this album to you. 

I would also recommend exploring the rest of Gimu’s work where you will find much reward.
