“Memori” by Mora Mothaus sounds like the imagery reflected off a shiny surface of a world outside a nearby window on a cloudy day. At points the melancholic tones are bright and distinct, at others there is a tiny bit of warping and obscuring and blending of details. The fragile guitar shimmer, the synth wash and the vocals both the most coherent and focused presence in the song and one that seemingly effortlessly passes into the abstract drones mid-track before coming back in out of the flood of sound like a cherished memory emerging through the crowd of thoughts of present concerns. It is the sound of one’s inner life projected onto a funhouse mirror. Fans of Like A Villain and Grouper will appreciate how Mothaus is operating beyond genre and using her various musical tools to craft an emotional experience informed by aesthetics beyond songwriting.
