Garlic Hug Debut EP Release

At long last, we’re happy to announce the release of our EP The Truth About Carbs on Aphelion Editions!

 
 

Garlic Hug is a collaboration with Alessandro Altavilla. We had a lot of fun creating this music across 2018 and we recorded it in Sheffield in 2019 with the help of Lorenzo Prati.

Our EP journeys from stop-start rhythm games to garlic drones, to hiccuping beats and synth-sax skronk, rounded off with a text-to-speech apocalypse. Drawing from a playground of different instruments, we switch from improvisations with found recordings, to wonky instrumental duos & ritualistic coding psalms.

The EP is available in cassette, CD-R and digital formats on Bandcamp. We also have a few copies of the cassettes if you’d like to buy from us directly (you can contact me here). Thanks to lovely Liam from Aphelion Editions!
