New record pressing – Laura Cocks – Fathm.

FATHM isn’t so much an album as it is a question—a pause in the middle of a conversation no one’s having, but everyone’s pretending to understand. It asks nothing of you, but demands your presence, your ear, your breath. The flute, a tender and fragile instrument, becomes almost otherworldly—like a butterfly in another dimension with teeth, or a marsh wren that screams only in windings. It speaks in fragmented thoughts, tracing edges of longing, absence, and memory. Each note emerges from a distant place and dissolves just as quickly. It’s both the sound and the space between it, the breath before it, and the quiet that follows.
