She first heard his work while watching the 2019 film The Last Black Man In San Francisco; just minutes in, she paused it to look up who did the score and wrote to him immediately. “I love Emile’s ability to create melodies that feel magically scenic and familiar like they are reminding you of the innocence of loving life.” Those talents saw recognition in 2020 with an Oscar nomination for Mosseri’soriginal score to the film Minari. He was already a fan of Smith’s and became increasingly intrigued by her impressionistic process as they started to talk. “The music feels so spiritual and alive and made from the earth,” Mosseri says. “I think of her as the great conductor, summoning musical poetry from her orchestra of machines.” I Could Be Your Dog / I Could Be Your Moon, their two-part collaborative album, introduces an uncanny fusion of their sonics. Constructed using synthesizer, piano, electronics, and voice, this soft-focus dream world is lush, evocative, and fleeting. It finds two composers tuning their respective styles inward as an ode to mutual inspiration, a celebration of the human spirit and its will to surrender to the currents of life. Early into their correspondence, Smith and Mosseri realised they were neighbors in Los Angeles and met up for a few hikes. Their conversations led to a musical exchange over email. The exercise became a sketch, the start of their first song together, “Log In Your Fire,” with Mosseri finding flourishes in Smith’s cathartic synth lines to intonate and harmonise alongside. Lyrically, it’s a beautiful, open-ended sentiment. “Being a log in someone’s fire, to me, means letting go, and surrendering to that feeling,” says Mosseri. From there, the pair composed a series of musical foundations, trading files from afar, nurturing the eventual expansion as the remote days of 2020 set in. Smith likens the collaborative experience to the exciting uncertainty of starting a garden, “doing what I can to facilitate growth while enjoying the process of being surprised by what will actually grow.” In the summer of 2021, the duo finished work on the sequel, I Could Be Your Moon, expanding their musical language as the first part reached its September release. Songs from these more recent exchanges find them even more synced, forging into percussive and harmonic experiments, leaning further into their “unused musical muscles,” as Smith and Mosseri put it. A unified vocal presence emerged. “As the friendship grew I think we both learned how to support each other more and musically that was communicated through singing together,” adds Smith. Now taken as a full album set, I Could Be Your Dog / I Could Be Your Moon moves fluidly from track to track, panning through textural vi- gnettes. Two roughly 17-minute halves, the set evokes the bittersweet sense of something too bright or rare to last, a short-lived glimpse into a golden hour. There is a dreamy, elemental intention to this music, which Smith and Mosseri say came naturally, as they both embraced intuitive interplay throughout their creative back-and-forth. The stylistic threads of each composer are recognizable yet become more ambiguous as the album progresses, sewn into a singular vision. “I’m so grateful that my musical ideas could dance with hers with some grace and harmony,” says Mosseri. Smith adds that this experience helped her “remember that mu- sic can be a connecting layer of friendship, especially in a time when the usual ways were out of reach.” Artist Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith & Emile Mosseri Genre Electronica Label Ghostly Buying Options 1LP , 1LP Coloured Vinyl Format 1LP , Coloured Vinyl Condition New Country UK Track Listings Log In Your Fire Moon In Your Eye Brush I Could Be Your Dog Glendora Blink Twice Moonweed Green To You Amber Standing In Your Light Shim Sham Golden Cow Radio Replacement Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Electronica View Product Quick View Weval Remember Electronica | Technicolour | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released 3rd March 2023 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Weval Remember £26.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Technicolour SKU: TCLR041 Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released Date: 3rd March 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View John Foxx And The Maths The Shape Of Things Electronica | Metamatic Records | 180g, 1LP Released 14th September 2012 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders John Foxx And The Maths The Shape Of Things £17.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Metamatic Records SKU: META29LP Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 14th September 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Babii SCREAMER Electronica | Gloo | 1LP Released 16th December 2022 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Babii SCREAMER £25.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Gloo SKU: GLOO0010V Formats: 1LP Released Date: 16th December 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Mariusz Duda Claustrophobic Universe Electronica | Kscope | 1LP Released 12th August 2022 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Mariusz Duda Claustrophobic Universe £25.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Kscope SKU: KSCOPE1166 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 12th August 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dark Day Hands In The Dark Electronica | Dark Entries | 12", Single Released 6th January 2014 £13.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dark Day Hands In The Dark £13.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Dark Entries SKU: DE046LP Formats: 12", Single Released Date: 6th January 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Telex Telex Electronica | Mute | 6LP, Box Set Released 14th April 2023 £121.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Telex Telex £121.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Mute SKU: TELEXBOX1 Formats: 6LP, Box Set Released Date: 14th April 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Bonobo & Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs Heartbreak Electronica | OUTLINER | 12", Single Released 13th November 2020 £9.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Bonobo & Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs Heartbreak £9.00 Genre: Electronica Label: OUTLINER SKU: OTLR001 Formats: 12", Single Released Date: 13th November 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Sigur Ros ( ) 20th Anniversary Remaster Electronica | Krunk | 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 16th December 2022 £33.00 - £38.00 Select options Reserve View Reservations Sigur Ros ( ) 20th Anniversary Remaster £33.00 - £38.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Krunk Formats: 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 16th December 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Select options View Product Quick View East Man Prole Art Threat Electronica | Planet Mu | 1LP Released 24th July 2020 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders East Man Prole Art Threat £20.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Planet Mu SKU: ZIQ423 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 24th July 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Seesselberg Synthetik I Electronica | Wah Wah | 1LP, Includes Insert Released 16th December 2013 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Seesselberg Synthetik I £24.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Wah Wah SKU: LPS126 Formats: 1LP, Includes Insert Released Date: 16th December 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Electronica Start again
