Price (incl. 19% VAT): €27.50 More Info Kali Malone and Drew McDowall present Magnetism, their first collaborative album born from a decade-long friendship and ignited by a single day of creative synergy. When Malone stepped into McDowall’s Brooklyn home studio, a shared vision immediately took root and set the course for a remarkable collaboration between these two singular artists. On Magnetism, Malone’s poignant and evocative melodies manifest through McDowall’s signature timbral synthesis, creating a unified voice that soars freely and radiates with vitality. Technically, the duo employs an exquisite blend of Karplus-Strong synthesis, distortion and just intonation. Kali and Drew embrace these tools with refined grace while moving fluidly within their musical framework. Charged by the magnetic pull of repetition, saturation, and resonance, Magnetism pulses as a living music that captivates the senses and lingers long in the mind after the final notes fade.

Many of the melodies, Malone says, had lived inside her for a long time – and the album finally gave her the space to voice them. That is what makes Magnetism feel so honest and immediate. Across four extended pieces, the smallest shifts and resonances transform into a ritualistic sonic meditation. A work one feels more than hears – a quiet conversation with oneself." [Celeste D.]
