Soon I'll Run Out of Air
A Colourful Storm unpack a genius year-end special featuring label nearest and dearest Laila Sakini, Valentina Magaletti, Christoph De Babalon, Maxine Funke, Troth, Félicia Atkinson, Mark, Avital Rolnick, Unchained and Scythe, who between them cast a riveting, liminal spell. Trust, it’s real special stuff.
A label that’s very clearly shaped by the exquisite taste, sprawling interests and wormhole-jumping of its founder and spirit guide Moopie, ‘Soon I'll Run Out of Air’ is one of those rare comps - a bit like PAN’s ‘Mono No Aware’ - that runs like a waking dream. The list of involved personnel is impressive enough, but what really hits is the selection and sequencing - it feels like everyone involved was in the same room, riffing off one another, drifting in and out of the same dense atmosphere.
Valentina Magaletti’s exceptional opener 'A Ghost Again' finds her at a most ethereal, fleeting and compelling vantage point, curling hissing cymbals through glockenspiel chimes, piano, and the faint echoes of a half-song, feeding into Mark’s red-eyed synth vapours, Félicia Atkinson’s gossamer storytelling and Maxine Funke’s windswept reveries - the whole section runs like one extended incantation. Then, Troth summon the spirit of Julee Cruise, backed by a solitary, winding clarinet and some wheezing keys, and Laila Sakini (here appearing as Lucinda) unveils a real stunner, her usually brittle production transformed into more clearly defined shapes and deft drum programming . Label newcomer Avital Rolnick’s sublime hebrew-language strum recalibrates the mood, before Christoph de Babalon gifts us two minutes of midnight keys that take us deep, deep into the night...
