    The 18th installment of Saddle Creek’s Document series comes from experimental artist claire rousay. The two tracks, Sigh in My Ear and Your First Armadillo are the latest release from this Los Angeles based artist, adding to her extensive discography.

    claire rousay’s music zeroes in on personal emotions and the minutiae of everyday life—voicemails, haptics, environmental recordings, stopwatches, whispers and conversations—layering them with electronics in patient, poetic arrangements and exploding their significance.

    Rousay’s collection of field recordings are layered with broad strings, midi instruments, piano and vocals to create abstracted environments. Melancholic autotune and harmonized vocals melt into the first track, Sigh in My Ear. While Your First Armadillo enters like the sun rising over a hill on a summer day.

    Listening to claire rousay’s collages of everyday life archives pertinent everyday experiences that weave our human experience together.

lyrics

I wish i was dying laughing
On your bedroom floor
Just one more time
Hearing you sigh in my ear
Telling me tonight is all you need
“Doesn’t matter what’s outside of here”

I can still hear you sigh in my ear
What was it that I stopped myself from saying
What was it that I stopped myself from saying
I can’t recall

Now it’s four in the morning
And I’m running through the old times
Before you bled out your arms
Leaving scissors on the floor
Doesn’t matter cause you’re outside of here
Fuck what you did there

What was it that I stopped myself from saying
What was it that I stopped myself from saying
I can’t recall
