Something in the Room She Moves

by Julia Holter

supported by

Fred Guile Great release from very talented artist. Julia Holter can grasp 50 years of music history and translate that into her own personal interpretation (which rings many bells to me). Small remark on this release: the overall sound design is a little too "dreamy verb" and I noticed it sounds much better live with less processing. Favorite track: Spinning.

buzzbabyjesus Simply blows me away. Reminds me of all my favorite music without sounding the least bit derivative. Defies category in all the right ways. Delightfully complex, and gets better with every play. Favorite track: Something in the Room She Moves.

about

“My heart is loud,” Julia Holter sings on her sixth album Something in the Room She Moves, following an inner pulse. The Los Angeles songwriter’s past work has often explored memory and dreamlike future, but her latest album resides more in presence: “There’s a corporeal focus, inspired by the complexity and transformability of our bodies,” Holter says. Her production choices and arrangements form a continuum of fretless electric bass pitches in counterpoint with gliding vocal melodies, while glissing Yamaha CS-60 lines entwine warm winds and reeds. “I was trying to create a world that’s fluid-sounding, waterlike, evoking the body’s internal sound world,” Holter says of her flowing harmonic universe.

“What is delicious and what is omniscient?” she sings on “Spinning”, the album’s incantatory centerpiece. “What is the circular magic I’m visiting?” Or as Holter put it: “It’s about being in the passionate state of making something: being in that moment, and what is that moment?” She found it anew on Something in the Room She Moves, singing in somatic frequencies.

Gorgeous and moving, this album fills a musical void in my collection that I didn't know existed. With lyrics that speak about the human condition and instrumentals that have a medieval flair, this has become my new musical addiction 😁 Not a single note is wasted here 9RnK7
