*250 copies limited edition* Venus is a new LP by Swedish group Organ of Corti and marks their fifth release on Dead Mind Records. For the occasion, Chinese-American vocalist and musician Audrey Chen enters the magnetic world of Mattias Gustafsson, Dan Johansson and Joachim Nordwall. While tape turns and circuits hum, these six pieces slowly unfold. Familiar fragments are repeated until they lose their origin. Synthesizer tones drift through layers of magnetic residue, while Chen's voice appears and disappears - sometimes human, sometimes animalistic and sometimes reduced to nothing but vibration or abstract noise.

Sounds surface, dissolve and return in altered form. A voice becomes a signal, a signal becomes a texture. The tape remembers something that cannot be identified. Venus is not a journey toward a destination, but a passage through an unknown environment. Suspended between the organic and the electronic, the intimate and the alien. A return to form for the Organ of Corti, but also another stage in the evolution of their cosmic music. Listen carefully. Something is moving beneath the surface.
