Ed Rain is somewhat of a “new” name on the label’s roster.
His fresh debut LP, titled ‘Met Him on a Wednesday’, explores various channels of artistic expressions and ideas, compiled together into a cohesive and entertaining album.
It is an immersive venture into post-genre sonic landscapes, providing glimpses into both the artist’s serious and playful sides, offering listeners a fun and captivating auditory experience.
Whether it’s the sluggish, wavy beats of the opening tracks (Subway Gang, Slow Talk), his playful take on post-punk electronica (Invocation, z ‘AX) or his more mellow and contemplative collaborations with Julienne Dessagne (aka Fantastic Twins) and Diana
Miron, Ed Rain puts on display his wide array of influences.
Be it Jon Hassel and Philipp Glass’s 4th world(ish) moods or Adrian Sherwood and Bill Laswell’s dubby aesthetics, he manages to weave together a unique interpretation for a
debut album.
This new project paints a space where experimentalism and emotional vulnerability coexist, where various sides of one’s personality are stirred together into the sonic pot, resulting in a vast sonic spectrum, resonating from one source.
‘Met Him on a Wednesday’ is an album about growth and rebirth and was composed and compiled between 2022-2024, by Andrei Rusu.
