Circuit des Yeux delivers new cut "Sculpting the Exodus"
Haley Fohr, aka Circuit des Yeux, has released new single "Sculpting the Exodus" as a second taster of her Matador Records debut -io.
"Sculpting the Exodus" follows last month's lead outing "Dogma", and is teamed with a self-directed visual.
On the new track, Fohr comments, "What is Sculpting the Exodus? It is devotion. It is the well. It is my grandmother going into hospice, writhing in pain. It is reality exploding on an island made of sand. It is depression and the isolation of deep grief. I was trapped in a choir of myself with nothing to grab onto but echoes of past selves. It obliterated my heart until the only working parts of me were the appendages furthest from my mind. A few notes here A couple notes there… The fingers were working when nothing else could. And I was fantasizing of leaving like I always do…"
-io will follow Circuit des Yeux's 2017 album Reaching For Indigo, and was recorded on tape at Chicago's Electrical Audio studio last autumn by Cooper Crain. The album was mixed by Marta Salogni (Bjork, Holly Herndon), while Fohr arranged and produced the record.
Fohr says of the album, "I was haunted by memories in the pandemic. As someone with PTSD, memories are all twisted up inside of me in a way that doesn't help my higher self. Making this album was once again an exercise of trying to relieve myself of some of that darkness in a way that music has always done for me."
