Album of an Album

I have been working hard all year on my album and I am pleased to say it is SUPER close to being finished. I am so very excited to share the songs with you all. Sooooooon!

In the meantime, I’d like to show you some photos of something i made for the album cover. For a long time I have been wanting to make something bigger out of felt than the tiny instruments i currently sew. And what better way to start than to make a giant modular synthesizer by hand!? I know it sounds crazy, and to be honest, at times i thought i might be losing my mind a little in the process, but the finished product (the album cover) looks pretty great.

So while i am putting the finishing touches on the record, please enjoy these photos :)

1. The Goal (Monster Moog or something along the lines of)

Keith Emerson

2. The Frame

3. The Knobs (I made 164 of these with the help of some special lady friends: Sarah, Vanessa, Tanya, Patience, Rhiana, Emily)

4. The Input Jacks (I glued 275 washers to silver backing and cut them out)

5. The Modules (35 Hand stitched module names)

6. The Layout

7. The Research (‘Snowflakes are dancing’ played by Tomita)

8. The Detail

9. The Pain

10. The Finished Synth

The album shot is really something and I will share it with you very soon!

Until then,

lots of love

Plaster Pony

Hello friends

I would like you to meet my new studio buddy. I painted him at my friend’s birthday party recently and he’s been keeping me company.

I want to name him something cute but i want to name all things Frank for some reason. Perhaps you could help me come up with a more suited name?

This last weeks have been very productive and exciting because we not only got to squelch, buzz, strum, and hum around my home studio, we also got to clank and clop around a bit at Airlock Studios in Samford. I got to spend my birthday playing a baby grand piano, a Wurlitzer and a Hammond with a Leslie there. I felt like a very lucky girl.

There is lots of work left to do and I will post more photos very soon. I will also reveal some very special guests as the album gets a little closer to being finished.

I just spent the weekend in Sydney and got to watch a few Vivid shows at the Opera House. Janelle Monae and band were incredible. I also went to see my label mates Seekae play with an 8-piece string section. Very impressive and inspiring. Adjectives starting with ‘I’ seem to be what I use to describe Vivid shows. But I really mean it :)

Here is a shitty photo I took of the Seekae show —–>

Until next time

Lots of love
