Late Aster - Light Rail Session (Live) '2023

Tracks list

	Light Rail Session was recorded at Light Rail Studios in San Francisco, CA on
June 9, 2023, including all of the effects on each instrument, from vocal delay
to horn and trumpet filters to fuzz on the synthesizer. The EP offers an
intimate listening of live performances and experimentation of colors and
textures within the limits of two brass instruments, fx pedals, a drum
machine/sampler, a Korg minilogue synthesizer, and a Moog subharmonicon.

Situated somewhere between jazztronica, ambient electronic, and chamber pop, San
Francisco-based Late Aster’s music has been described as producing
“unprecedented sounds” (SF Chronicle) that “on paper []
shouldn’t work, but it does.” (Tape-Op) Their first release, an EP
called “True and Toxic” (2021), articulated a kaleidoscopic theory
of music grounded in the electronic processing of trumpet and French horn and
supported by meticulous songwriting, instrumentation, and sound-sculpting. 

Live performances re-imagine the group's studio recordings as a duo, combining
Anni's experience in classical chamber music with Aaron's poetry, video art, and
environmental activism to create an atmosphere at once immersive and intimate.
