Ava Mirzadegan and Julie Doiron Are Willing to Talk About the Heavy Stuff

Vorhex Angel features both members of JEFF The Brotherhood and longtime collaborator Kunal Prakash. Not much has been revealed about Vorhex Angel in terms of intentions or influences. They have no social media presence. Sonically, they cover a range: There’s the damaged, and then there is the even more damaged. In one way or another, all of the music takes cues from a large trove of Japanese noise rock—Les Rallizes Dénudés, High Rise, White Heaven—and uses those influences as a jumping off point for improvisation. Is Vorhex Angel a jam band? Maybe if you swap out the Allman Brothers for Acid Mothers Temple. What we do know: These are lifers fully off the leash, unburdened by the structures of industry, making music as free as a seraphic being floating above a stack of amps in a dive bar.
Their latest record, Drain, is out now on Soul Selects.

Primitive Ring consists of Bert Hoover (Hooveriii, Groop), Jon Modaff (Hooveriii, Groop, Frankie and the Witch Fingers), and Charles Moothart (Fuzz, GØGGS). The three LA based musicians found each other in a collective state of high functioning de evolution, and collectively agreed to bend the knee to the primal instincts of melody and rhythm.

The Album Leaf has been making its mark as a soft-spoken innovator steadily and surely since 1999. It&#8217;s clear mastermind Jimmy LaValle is unafraid of thinking outside the box, both as an individual artist and within the larger scope of modern music.

Anthony Frith is a writer and director with a love for absurd pop-culture anomalies. His work has taken him to Boston, where he studied the art of churning out novelty songs with cult musician Matt Farley in Lessons From A Middle Class Artist; to Burbank, where he made his feature debut directing a trashy dinosaur movie for the legendary studio the Asylum in <a href="https://www.mockbustermovie.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mockbuster</a>, which is in theaters from July 10 through Giant Pictures. You can usually find Anthony deep in the rabbit holes of internet folklore, always on the hunt for strange stories from the fringes of pop culture.

Advik Beni is a South African filmmaker and curator currently based in Los Angeles whose new film, mother, you have not died yet. but you will. and when you do, you will finally be alive again, world premieres on July 9 at <a href="https://fidmarseille.org/en/festivals/festival-37/films/mother-you-have-not-died-yet-but-you-will-and-when-you-do-you-will-finally-be-alive-again" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FIDMarseille</a>. Through a practice steeped in South African traditions of orality, their work aims to create imagined spaces for marginalized people to express grief and trauma. They are interested in how these non-hierarchical, hybrid models of filmmaking can encourage a collective mutability amongst rhizomatic pathways – that may lead to an actuality of positive impact on communities; whilst preserving a cultural tradition eclipsed by Western modes of storytelling. Advik is focused on how we can witness each other’s existence, and all that entails, in an attempt to facilitate a tangibility of cross-border solidarity that prioritizes care. Their work has been supported by San Sebastián International Film Festival, Sundance, Prismatic Ground, New Orleans Film Festival, Flaherty Film Seminar, Points North Institute and the Edinburgh International Film Festival amongst others.
