Votive by Rosa Anschütz

There's a sense of vulnerability rooted in this music, from the skeletal instrumentation to the gently sung words to the striking artwork. Rosa Anschütz is an artist (sound and visual) and her work carries the learned air of interpretation and process. As a result, the concept of votives as an offering or a desire or a performance can be appreciated on many levels. Musically, the balance of experimentation with a Coldwave vibe is therefore fitting. It's a slow-grower but rewards are there for the reaping.
