Old Grape God digs in on EATING OVER THE TRASH
Eleven PDX Magazine
by Henry Whittier-Ferguson
3w ago
From the opening bars of EATING OVER THE TRASH, the new self-produced album from Old Grape God, the pressure is mounting. If you’ve been counting, it’s the Portland rapper’s staggering 41st release, and that number is itself a testament to the truth of the project’s emotional core, which is learning how to balance the external pressures of life by exerting equal and opposite pressure back outwards. For Old Grape God, that outward pressure is the act of creation, a positive force which allows the artist to maintain an equilibrium with their environment. If all the talk of unseen pressures soun ..read more

Saroon plays with process on ODDITIES VOL. 1

Where does a song come from? Is it birthed from within, or is it floating out there somewhere, waiting to be caught? The answer, as explored on ODDITIES VOL. 1, the new project from Saroon, is both and neither. The truth is more like: songs come from the intersection between the self and the world, and rather than thinking of songs as objects, we might instead consider them to be a process. To really understand ODDITIES, VOL. 1, it might help to look back at the birthplace of this collection of songs, namely Honest Jams, a songwriting podcast hosted by ayal (who releases music as Saroon) and ..read more

Julia Logue looks toward the horizon on her new album, Welcome To Your Sunrise
Eleven PDX Magazine

In the days just after the winter solstice, the days which sink back into darkness seemingly before they’ve even begun, Julia Logue is looking toward the horizon. The Portland-based singer’s debut album, Welcome To Your Sunrise, comes to us in these dark days of winter as a ray of affirmation, a promise that we will once again see the sun. The album begins with the glow of a rhodes on “Roam,” establishing the mood that will carry the energy throughout the project, and growing into one of Logues most expansive compositions to date, and setting the tone for the rest of the album’s 33 minute run ..read more

Pink Navel and Kenny Segal show us how to keep the rhythm on How To Capture Playful
Eleven PDX Magazine
by Henry Whittier-Ferguson
5M ago
On “Reset,” the opening track of How To Capture Playful, by rapper Pink Navel and producer Kenny Segal, Navel invokes the rogue-lite, a genre of game in which defeat sets the player back to the title screen, forced to start again from the beginning, but this time armed with the knowledge of that defeat, and with a fresh chance to play. Some rogue-lites have a final boss and a reachable ending, but many just have more randomly generated levels, endless depths of difficulty and ever-soaring heights of skill. Rap, for Navel, is the latter: a lifelong pursuit with a ceiling capped only by the scop ..read more
