Jlin
Black Origami
Planet Mu release Jlin's long awaited second album Black Origami. A percussion-led tour de force, it's a creation that seals her reputation as a unique producer with an exceptional ability to make riveting rhythmic music. Spirituality and movement are both at the core of Black Origami, inspired largely by her ongoing collaborations with Indian dancer / movement artist Avril Stormy Unger whom she met and collaborated with at her debut performance for the Unsound festival. Movement played a great role in Black Origami. The track Carbon 7 is very inspired by the way Avril moves and dances. Similar time shifting / folding / disrupting effects can be heard throughout the record – especially on Holy Child an unlikely collaboration with minimalist legend William Basinski. She also collaborates again with Holly Herndon on 1%, while Halcyon Veil producer Fawkes' voice is on Calcination and Cape Town rapper Dope Saint Jude provides vocals for Never Created, Never Destroyed.
