about

The second instalment of our Benefit Tracks series, Eartheater’s “Safely Contemplating a Temple Piercing”, features two exclusive tracks generously donated by the artist, with all proceeds going to support Fire Over Heaven’s experimental music programming at our beloved home, Outpost Artists Resources. A long time Ridgewoodian and former Outpost housemate, it seems like another life when Alex Drewchin was playing around the neighborhood with scrappy noisers, Guardian Alien, a duo with drummer Greg Fox (who, as it happens, started the Fire Over Heaven concert series back in 2015). She has since honed a diamond-focused live presence through countless solo performances as Eartheater, and released a string of gorgeously produced albums under that moniker on the labels Hausa Mountain and PAN. These records, like her genre subverting live shows, find her juxtaposing brooding, electronic abstractions and a melodic sense of songcraft that is as fierce as it is melancholic; the themes are metaphysical, bodily and erotic. Coming in the wake of her much lauded album _Phoenix: Flames Are Dew Upon My Skin_ and its remix edition, _Le Petite Mort_, “Safely Contemplating” finds Eartheater pushing further into the ambient atmospheres of the latter, and expanding the emotional range and immaculate digital production for which she is already so well known.

All of us at Fire Over Heaven and Outpost Artists Resources would like to extend our sincere thanks to Eartheater for donating proceeds of these tracks to our ongoing work presenting experimental and underground music from NYC online and thru our concert series. We’ve got another 50 concert recordings in our vaults that we’d like to release here, plus projects for new works and a return to live concerts to plan so, if it’s within your means to help us keep this work going, the best way to do so is by purchasing these and other tracks on this Bandcamp page. Lots more in store, so stay tuned!
