about

In ancient nordic folklore, there is a supposed tradition of elderly family members being hurled off of high cliffs when they get too old to take care of themselves or are no longer able to assist in the household. The sites where this dark ritual took place earned the moniker ‘attestupa’, a name given to several precipices scattered across Sweden. ‘Brodies Attestupa’ claims that this ancient, strange and arguably insane practice is still an integral part of our human condition. Using lush lo-fi textures, mixed with chopped up samples and large cavernous reverbs, I weave together an ambient story of a young artist named Brodie. A melt of beat-music and ambient pads serve as our protagonist's only way of conveying his experience, which ultimately finds him in a position of great danger and uncertainty when at the end he realizes he has been reborn into a computer and is the worlds first successful brain to A.I. transplant. Brodies Attestupa follows a hungry artist on his journey from one corner of consciousness to the other, all the while not forgetting that an artist's life is one of channeling the source, and Brodie might be face to face with that source sooner than he expected.
