Composer and filmmaker Elori Saxl has created music for Patagonia, Google, the New Yorker, This American Life, and many more, and has directed films for the New Yorker and Slate. The artist's coming album, The Blue of Distance, releases January 22nd, 2021 through Western Vinyl, and the latest piece revealed off it, Wave III, comes with a cinematic video edited and directed by Saxl herself.
Mastering a few different instrumentational approaches, and mingling electronic elements, ambient sounds and traditional means of orchestration, Wave III is paradigmatic of the seamless way in which its the album's disparate worlds come together. With half of it written in New York's Adirondack mountains during summer and the other conceived on a frozen Lake Superior island during winter time, The Blue of Distance, touches on themes of land and nature, and the effect that technology has in our connection with them.
The Blue of Distance was written and recorded by Elori Saxl and mastered by Taylor Deupree.
