Black Truffle is pleased to announce the release of James Rushford's The Body's Night by the Australian composer and performer. Known for his collaborations with Oren Ambarchi, crys cole, Kassel Jaeger, Klaus Lang, Joe Talia and many others, this LP is Rushford's first solo release in a decade and the very first that he composed, performed and recorded all by himself. The Body's Night was recorded in Los Angeles in 2017 and is a single 30-minute electroacoustic suite that uses field recordings, flutes, ocarina, microphones, organ, drums, piano, band, analog synthesizer, viola and voice. True to its title, the record immediately leads into a nocturnal, intimate, claustrophobic space in which the hyper-amplified rustle of clothing and vocal marbles is shadowed by restless synth sounds, fluttering white noise and distant filigree of ultra-high tones at the edges of acoustic perception.
