Butterfly DNA cover

Butterfly DNA

Released

This spooked out world is my kinda thing and it comes from an Australian named Jim Sellars. The feel is nonlinear and the tools are equally digital and concrete, depending on the track. World is the operative word, in that Sellars isn’t that interested in establishing a sound or a narrative or a specific pull—what he makes on Butterfly DNA is a fully formed space with its own rules and tendencies. Some of the citizens have definitely been to a club, a few like watercolors, and maybe some of them know how to build furniture. It’s not an anxious place but things do fall apart and get crushed and flare out in the occasional sunlight-through-lens fire.
