AIRSPACE today launch a new single on Mute. Watch the video for “Stillness”
here.
Airspace are LA-based producer
Steve Nalepa (The Acid, TeamSupreme) and guitarist
Tony Bevilacqua (The Distillers, Cold Showers). Their new single features an instrumental collaboration with
K Á R Y Y N whose debut album,
THE QUANTA SERIES, was released earlier this year on Mute.
Bevilacqua started “Stillness”
“as a string composition intended to invoke being in a place far away from anything, in untouched, raw nature.” During sessions for K Á R Y Y N’s debut album, Nalepa and K Á R Y Y N began reworking Airspace’s “Stillness” track into a brand new track called “CYTOKINESIS.” The version on this single is the unreleased instrumental; the original version appears on THE QUANTA SERIES.
The haunting video for “Stillness” was created by Zak Norman, a British visual artist and stage designer who operates under the pseudonym of Black Box Echo. He created the album art for all Airspace releases, including this one, utilising his complex analog visual processing. He has collaborated with musicians such as Squarepusher, Bicep and Africa Express on set pieces and touring productions.
Californian polymath Steve Nalepa is known for his vast and eclectic array of artistic collaborators. Together with Ry X and Adam Freeland, he releases music and tours with his band The Acid (Infectious/Mute). He is a founding member of esteemed beat collective TeamSupreme and a key node in the electronic music scene, cultivated through years of creating music and producing events. Nalepa has published award-winning art books through the self-launched Dilettante Press, scored several feature-length documentary films as well as devised and engineered Ableton Live rigs for such acts as Blood Orange, Nick Murphy, Drake and The Weeknd.
Tony Bevilacqua is a guitarist based in Los Angeles who has performed and recorded with a plethora of artists including Brody Dalle, Adam Freeland, Har Mar Superstar, The Soft Pack, jennylee, La Sera, Cold Showers and Spinnerette. His band The Distillers are about to embark on autumn dates throughout North America after a string of European festival appearances.
