Elvin Brandhi
Shelf Life
Boomkat Product Review:
A cult star of the UK underground, Yeah You’s Elvin Brandhi strikes solo in stunning fashion with ’Shelf Life’ for C.A.N.V.A.S., hot on the heels of their wide-scoped ‘Cipher’ compilation.
Perhaps best known for her improvised rap/noise project Yeah You alongside her dad, Gwilly Edmondes, the artist known as Elvin Brandhi is a vital creative force to be reckoned with on ‘Shelf Life’, hacking and splicing frazzled electronics and her own voice into utterly singular, mutant designs that could hardly have come from anyone else.
There’s so much going on that we’re kinda lost for words and left reeling from it all. But if we allow our ears to defocus a little, structures begin to emerge from the chaos, kinda like a T-1000 flailing in molten meckle. Variously, we hear a wild flux of crushed flashcore rhythms a la Croww woven with free-metered vocals and Wanda Group-like gunk in ‘Empty Weeping’, while ‘REAP SOLACE’ recalls an Arca or Lotic piece twysted inside-out, gut spilling, before ‘I SAID IF’ runs roughshod with DJ Scud-style Yardcore and Merzbow-esque shards of electronic noise. And just as you think you’ve got a grip, ‘IMBRED WAILE-OCDC’ invest it all, setting blown-out percussion in acres of negative space with discombobulated pop vocals and blasts of dissonance, then ’Skype Warp’ closes the account cannily close to Klein with a burning but elusive, avant sense of soul.
Jaws will drop at the feet of this one. Highly recommended!
