Los Angeles-based musician Tashi Wada works within a heady, intergenerational slipstream bridging storied East and West Coast art music institutions, and the DIY experimental scenes that emerged in the 2000s and 2010s. Between recording and performing with his partner, Julia Holter, and running his record label Saltern, Wada has carved a unique path as a forward- thinking composer alongside a tight network of collaborators, drawing on diverse influences and exchanges.
Wada’s new album for RVNG Intl., What Is Not Strange?, strips away preconceptions of the scope of his music, presenting complex, pop-informed compositions that bristle with joy.
Support will come from Dialect. Dialect is the solo project of British musician and composer Andrew PM Hunt. Embracing an intuitive, collage-like approach to sound, he assembles rich organic textures with evocative electro-acoustic environments, resulting in compositions that are both fragmented and deeply personal. Following a progression of concept-rich releases across almost a decade, Dialect marks a return to RVNG Intl. in 2024 with Atlas of Green, a work of speculative musical poetry melding a patchwork of scavenged relics and bygone hues through the shimmers of a mid-future in flux.
"Tashi Wada's experimental compositions capture our current age, highlighting the beauty that can be found in an unstable world"
