Fizzy! - A new record traversing the contradictory planes of our online life

Last Wednesday I finally released my new album, Fizzy! (on bandcamp and everywhere else), which is a debut of a sorts for me. On this album I make my first step into songwriting, incorporating my voice in new ways, as a singer, rapper, and yelp-ist. While thematically similar to last year's haunting bluelightnospaceflattimg, in Fizzy! I took inspirations from my personal favourite artists to make something more danceable, song-like, and universal.

I've had a great reception so far, with some airplay on NTS (here and here, and a lovely write-up from Foxy Digitalis.

"Tam Lin maps the fever dream of being always elsewhere, where broken transmissions bleed into liquid beats and every voice hovers between human and code. These are songs caught mid-mutation, pixels stretching into melodies while glitched percussion hammers against the thin membrane separating presence from absence. What emerges feels like scrolling through the wreckage of intimacy, each track a different room in the endless house of screens where we live now. Fizzy! throbs with the peculiar loneliness of being seen but never known, understood but never touched, its mutant textures reflecting back our own fractured reflections in infinite black mirrors. This is what it sounds like to exist simultaneously everywhere and nowhere, to be perpetually logged in but always searching for signal."

It's also had an amazing physical treatement from my label Jollies in the form of a bright green cassette. Thanks to them for the wonderful graphic design.

Happy listening!
