EROS/LIMITED

Description

Daniel O''Sullivan''s transcendent new album, Eros, is a simply breathtaking song cycle of hypnotic, experimental contemporary chamber music, composed for a 14-piece ensemble. Blending minimalism, intricate syncopations, detailed acoustic textures, strange intervals, and samurai precision, this record will elegantly blow your mind.When Daniel first sent it to us, he described it as "a mix of Liquid Swords and Michael Nyman." He was right. "A unique hybrid orchestral music," this album showcases the confluence of Daniel''s long-standing obsessions; you''ll find elements of Nyman, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Magma, Aaron Copland, and RZA. Yet it is entirely O''Sullivan''s own. Originally commissioned for the Sonoton music library in Munich, Eros is now available on deluxe vinyl, allowing this meticulously crafted work to reach a wider audience.Limited to 500 copies worldwide. Recorded in June 2023 and February 2024 in Brussels, London, and Carmarthenshire, Wales, Eros brings together members of Echo Collective (Neil Leiter and Margaret Hermant), Thighpaulsandra (of post-industrial group Coil), and jazz pioneer Oren Marshall.
