dagmarzuni's latest album, in filth your mystery is kingdom / far smile peasant in yellow music, provides an antidote to the heartless pursuit of chill vibes that dominates so much of meditative music. The album, just under 29 minutes long, was written and recorded over a period of five years — every second counts, and every decision compliments each other. ⁠ ⁠ Zuniga offers two versions of the songs “Even God Gets Stuck In Devotion” and Plenty For All The Masses” and in these tunes we hear shades of Grouper’s ambient isolation and Cindy Lee's pop mystery, as well as clear glimpses of a deep spirituality. That feeling comes to a head on closer “To Live Happily,” where harsh noise meets basement church piano noodling.⁠ ⁠ Read our The Opener interview with the Texas musician at the link in bio.⁠ ⁠ 📸 courtesy Dagmar Zuniga⁠ ⁠ #TheOpener #DagmarZuniga
