Sampling Stories Vol. 5: COOL FOR YOU

Liechti, Hannes (22 March 2017). Sampling Stories Vol. 5: COOL FOR YOU. Norient - Network for Local and Global Sounds and Media Culture

Full text not available from this repository.

High-pitched voices, unfamiliar harmonies, rumbling and raw rhythms: We are listening to the musical output of Berlin-based multidisciplinary artist, Vika Kirchenbauer. Under the moniker COOL FOR YOU she tends to «decompose harmonies as colonizers». What she means by that becomes obvious if you look at the sampling strategies on her most recent EP, MOOD MANAGEMENT (Creamcake 2017). There – as in the tracks of her previous EP – she processes recordings of Sacred Harp gatherings, a religious choral tradition from the US South.
