Melbourne based jazz musician Matthew Hayes began releasing his take on contemporary music via Albrecht La’Brooy’s Analogue Attic imprint in 2017 and has since gone on to release an array of material both as a solo act, a number of collaborations and as part of the Zeitgeist Freedom Exchange project. Here though we see Hayes joining the roster of Black Wattle, a Sydney based imprint headed up by Thomas Gray, one half of the Thomas Gray & Liam Ebbs duo who individually released material on the label, as well as the Analogue Attic imprint collaboratively.

Opening the release is ‘Absolutely Everybody’, fuelled by looming piano chords, plucked bass tones, sporadic brass licks and shuffled drums. ‘Clear’ follows next, laying focus on hazy vocal chants, cinematic piano and sax atmospherics and a choppy bass line throughout.

On the flip-side ‘Head Pressure’ leads, a beatless eight minute composition employing modulating textures, metallic percussion and dynamically unfolding melodies of piano, brass and bass all ebbing and flowing amongst one another. ‘Landcare’ then wraps up the project, retaining a similarly modern classical and jazz leaning aesthetic as wind instruments, wandering bass notes, airy atmospherics and fluttering piano keys flow in unison throughout.

Sydneysider, Freda (soundcloud), has three tracks waiting for release on Moonshoe – a label native to his hometown – which will be his second and only the fourth overall release on the imprint. Run by a musical collaborator of Freda’s, Jackson, the label has so far put out music from some impressive Australian artists, like Jackson himself and Horation Luna, the latter of which is a founding member of renowned Melbourne collective, 30/70.

Freda’s forthcoming EP, “Mad Dancer”, features a couple of dusty house and disco tracks on the A-side. The B-side, however is a more experimental, breakbeat track, intricately packed to the sonic-brim with drum and chopped vocal samples. Our premiere  Breakfast on the flip is the curveball of the 3 tracks. A darker mood is established before a syncopated break drives the EP home, exemplified by a sliding dissonant synth melody.

Expect good things from the young but impressive Moonshoe label in general, but first and foremost, look out for this high quality Freda record, released digitally and on some limited 12-inchers on April 20. Pre-order here.
