Emptiness: the impermanent and interdependent non-self nature of all things. We plant a seed, nurture it for a time or not, but the plant thrives on the web of energy. It becomes a living embodiment, a collation of the forces and materials that flow into and through it.
Yea Big's shrub of Emptiness began with a haunting recording of wind chimes that grew into a trilogy of compositions performed and recorded in collaboration with various groups: The Shape of Emptiness Now and Spiritual Emptiness (both 2020), and Yea Big + Disorganizer's An Emptiness Supreme (FPE Records, 2021). Now comes the next stage of its maturity: stems from An Emptiness Supreme went out to a select group of homies past and present, who delivered a supreme collection of meditations, mediations, pop songs, deconstructions, and bangers.
Here you'll find, to name a few: "Taskless and Disorganized", a Trevor Horn-inspired mutant pop anthem, the debut production of LOUDY (Jeffrey J. Byron of Mae Shi and Paul Christensen of Qui); a frazzled, fried noise-clatter destruction from the mysterious "M S"; the soaring soundtrack to the adventure movie of your mind by Poster Children's Rick Valentin; Kid Static's jazzy, moody, insistent beat; and Will Butler's crystalline jenga mind-melter "Beautiful Car".
