Noise Met Sound head and IDM artist Lawrence Lindell will release his last self-titled solo album this Friday with an intimate party at Industry Gallery, featuring installation work from local artist Rachel Rusenko. Lindell confirms that he will still operate Noise Met Sound, curating and playing live shows that mix different modes of creative expression.
This final album, with Lindell’s trademark concoction of found sounds and chopped beats, chronicles his life after Britain, starting over with a new job, a creative slump, and reconciliation with his mother in Los Angeles.
"For a good while after being back I was crippled with depression. I couldn’t write and everything I created was shit and disappointing to me."
Lindell eventually focused his energies to write and publish a self-help book, which effectively reboot his energy and propped him to complete the album.
You can pre-order the last album here on Bandcamp. Listen to the opener "Still Free to Live" below. – Ryan Mo, flyer art by Dustin Garcia
