The Rest Is Noise: Copeland

23 August

The Rest Is Noise presents the mysterious Inga Copeland – now just Copeland. Airs of ambiguity have radiated around Copeland’s career from the start, with mutating public identities, waves of redefined experimental sounds, disregard of stylistic parameters and unstable partnerships. This May brought the dawn of new ambivalence, with the self-release of Copeland’s debut solo album Because I’m Worth It.

The Rest Is Noise presents the mysterious Inga Copeland – now just Copeland. Airs of ambiguity have radiated around Copeland’s career from the start, with mutating public identities, waves of redefined experimental sounds, disregard of stylistic parameters and unstable partnerships. During the days of Hype Williams (her collaboration with Dean Blunt), the two even revelled rumours of them releasing their music by inserting USB sticks in apples and selling them in Brixton market. This May brought the dawn of new ambivalence, with the self-release of Copeland’s debut solo album Because I’m Worth It. Throughout the eight tracks of atmospheric loops, bouncy percussion and hypnotic vocals rings Copeland’s critique of commercialised culture and faux-feminism. All obfuscations aside, listen closely and you’ll catch a glimpse of the artist behind it all.

If that weren’t enough, we’ve got buzzy London-based label Blackest Ever Black’s Dalhous opening the show, bringing their signature, heavily engaging semi-ambient atmospherics. Their excellent, recently released, Visibility is a Trap EP measured genuinely blissful passages with equally unsettling segments and as such their slot promises to be an intruiguing experience.
