Matthew Wade Binged on Cherushii recently and the addition of Maria on these tracks is a perfect compliment to a talent that is so sadly missed. Favorite track: Thin Line.

about

In the fall of 2013 Maria Minerva mapped an 8-show U.S. tour up the west coast and across to Chicago but, being newly emigrated from Estonia without car or driver’s license, was in need of a traveling companion. Given the itinerary, only one road warrior / joie de vivrist came to mind: friend, penpal, and SILK sister Chelsea Faith AKA Cherushii. The two covered 3,000 miles together, performing in bars and towns not known for leftfield electronic patronage (i.e. VFW halls in Missoula, Montana). Though attendance was occasionally sparse they bonded deeply, in ways specific to American DIY touring.

In subsequent years the pair shared bills, traded tracks, and remained close – even performing live together a few times – yet the dream of a proper collaboration always loomed. The tragic Oakland fire of December 2016 cut short such plans but not before they’d written, recorded, and mixed the better part of six songs. With the assistance of David Last, Adam Gunther, and Brian Foote these recordings were posthumously polished and finalized and it’s SILK's honor to share them with the world.

Drawing on Minerva and Faith’s vibrant style overlap, the tracks channel mirror-lined music videos, downtempo night drives, rainbow eyeshadow, glittering skylines, and sweaty discotheques. Flowing from lush to lavish, highly finessed and full of feeling, it’s the sound of true union – Faith’s divine dancefloor DNA threaded through Minerva’s chic pop hooks, the best of both worlds.

The collection closes with a swooning ambient edit by Glassell Park hardware-whisperer Leech, Maria’s voice dubbed into a gauze of otherworldly emotion: “I’m going astray.”

Extra special thanks to Colleen Dolan and Sabrina Fox.
