This morning, slip into cruise control. Kelly Lee Owens is here, and the listening is easy. Travel a new map along roads that you thought you knew, experiencing everything and nothing as each moment glides by. Explore their interstitial spaces, escaping invisible limits and paths too well travelled. Feel the colours, the beauty, the motion.

Kelly Lee Owens’s selection

Alice Coltrane - Journey In Satchidananda

Kelly Lee Owens: The bass!!! My god! And the harp of course… just wow! A track every one should have heard. I usually listen to this on repeat in the dark.

Cocteau Twins - Wax & Wane

Kelly Lee Owens: It’s SO hard to choose one track from Cocteau Twins as it’s safe to say they are one of my favouite bands. Liz’s voice! Distorted bass lines ! Drum Machine ! So much atmosphere ! I love how the vocals are used abstractly at times - the “lyrics” are shaped by what sounds Liz feels she needs to make in reaction to the music - it’s so pure.

Aphex Twin - Acrid Avid Jam Shred

Kelly Lee Owens: I love pretty much every track he’s ever made - his production is insane! His tracks could have been made a week ago - he’s always been so ahead of everyone else in the game. I’m looking forward to seeing him at Primevera this year!

MailTape’s selection

Kelly Lee Owens — Anxi. ft. Jenny Hval

Louise: I saw Kelly Lee Owens live, her set was so sharp and awesome! Her music resonated in me during the show. I was really glad to get to see her on stage. Kelly Lee Owens’ album is deep and pure after several listen where I was amazed by her word, I had to feature her in a MailTape episode!

Peggy Gou - Gou Talk

Louise: I’m still discovering a lot of women creating electronic music. It makes me so happy! Peggy Gou is a Berlin based Korean artist and this song of hers is so damn cool. There’s a funky vibes in the melody and the bass is heavy. It makes me wanna dance!

Supernaive - Open Waltz

Louise: Supernaive is a band I discovered thanks to Shaelone — who was our guest a few months back! They are two brothers from Paris, really driven by the Japanese culture. I love their first EP Dazed & Confused and I knew they would be perfect for this MailTape episode.

Sophia Kennedy - Build Me A House

Louise: Sophia Kennedy’s voice! How good is that?! I loved this song, the minute I heard it. The piano is so damn good too. I really dig it!

That’s all folks. A big thanks to Kelly Lee Owens for being our guest this morning, thanks to Pierre-Julien for his amazing artwork of today’s episode and Daisy for her great writing!
