about

The Sedate / Tony Soprano Fashion Inspo. serves as a solo release from Ailie Ormston. Two separate works coalesce here, together they present a continuous surge in structure.

Ormston intends to confront the traditions of presenting, performing and digesting music in an attempt to articulate a form of a contemporary condition. They aim to construct a coherent visual language that corresponds to music writing, carrying its ethos into different forms and varying modes of communication.

Side A – 001, 003, 002 and 004 were composed specifically for The Sedate, a work developed by artists Stasis throughout 2018, which concluded as a short film and a performance on a building site in Merchant City, Glasgow. Heavy drums, tiny handbags, choral synths, big earrings, a fight scene, a breather and finally, La Macarena. They are listed here in order of appearance.

Side AA – A32, A18, A67, B12 and B34, collectively titled Tony Soprano Fashion Inspo., were written in short succession post Side A. Providing increasingly convoluted textures and arching narratives, these tracks are challenging in their multiplicity, with various contrapuntal lines of instrumentation being heard simultaneously. Physical renditions of each track were realised as vacuum packed chef whites and a series of music videos, to then be exhibited as ‘An oat latte, but with no image in the foam’ at Market Gallery, Glasgow.
