In crafting his first solo record, Cashion experimented in the studio, driven by a potentially infinite riddle: “what is the sound of a song that has no beginning and no end?” – a question which explores music’s unique ability to distort our sense of the passage of time—or even take us outside it. The resulting album builds upon the most intriguing results of months of exploratory writing sessions. About the Album: Future Islands bassist William Cashion collects postcards. Years in one of the country’s hardest-touring bands often find him rushing from destination to destination without time to take a deep breath, let alone be present in each locale’s sights and sounds. But bringing home postcards helps coalesce ephemeral moments into souvenirs he can return to and access again. In crafting his first solo record, Cashion experimented in the studio, driven by a potentially infinite riddle: “what is the sound of a song that has no beginning and no end?” Exploring music’s unique ability to distort our sense of the passage of time—or even take us outside it—Cashion welcomed elements of repetition and chance into his process. The sessions were also highly informed by meditation, a new regular practice Cashion introduced to his daily routine during this period. The resulting album builds upon the most intriguing results of months of exploratory writing sessions. Acclaimed UK designer Chris Bigg helped visualize the world of Postcard Music, and Cashion’s wife, visual artist Elena Johnston contributed a painting to the album’s inner sleeve. Cashion and Johnston have previously worked together on a series of collaborative paintings and brightly colored, curved neon light sculptures. During downtime between projects, he retreats to the beaches of North Carolina near where Future Islands formed. The eleven songs here were recorded in sessions in the Outer Banks, the Eastern Shore of Maryland, and Cashion’s current hometown Baltimore. Postcard Music is Cashion’s first solo album, and will be released in July, 2020 Artist William Cashion Genre Leftfield / Experimental Label Famous Class Buying Options 1LP Format 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings Lightning Bug Whalehead Triple Ocean Twin Pi?a Rosa Still Pond Creek Vizcaya Abelone Cana Cassette South Atlantic Fulgurite Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Leftfield / Experimental View Product Quick View Faust So Far Leftfield / Experimental | 4 Men With Beards | 180g, 1LP Released 4th August 2009 £27.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Faust So Far £27.00 Genre: Leftfield / Experimental Label: 4 Men With Beards SKU: 4M174 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 4th August 2009 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Grails Take Refuge In Clean Living (Reissue) Leftfield / Experimental | Temporary Residence | 1LP Released 17th March 2017 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Grails Take Refuge In Clean Living (Reissue) £21.00 Genre: Leftfield / Experimental Label: Temporary Residence SKU: TRR285LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 17th March 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jefre Cantu Ledesma On The Echoing Green Leftfield / Experimental | Mexican Summer | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 16th June 2017 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jefre Cantu Ledesma On The Echoing Green £19.00 Genre: Leftfield / Experimental Label: Mexican Summer SKU: MEX2121 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 16th June 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Aidan Baker / Simon Goff / Thor Harris The Bit Krautrock | GIZEH | 1LP Released 28th August 2020 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Aidan Baker / Simon Goff / Thor Harris The Bit £21.00 Genre: Krautrock Label: GIZEH SKU: GZH098LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 28th August 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Matmos Plastic Anniversary Leftfield / Experimental | Thrill Jockey | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 15th March 2019 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Matmos Plastic Anniversary £21.00 Genre: Leftfield / Experimental Label: Thrill Jockey SKU: THRILL482LP Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 15th March 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View John Cage Early Electronic & Tape Music Leftfield / Experimental | Sub Rosa | 1LP Released 14th October 2016 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders John Cage Early Electronic & Tape Music £19.00 Genre: Leftfield / Experimental Label: Sub Rosa SKU: SRV361 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 14th October 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Ben Frost V A R I A N T Electronica | Mute | 12", EP/Mini Album Released 8th December 2014 £9.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Ben Frost V A R I A N T £9.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Mute SKU: 12MUTE525 Formats: 12", EP/Mini Album Released Date: 8th December 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Hannah Peel Mary Casio – Journey To Cassiopeia Leftfield / Experimental | My Own Pleasure | 1LP Released 29th September 2017 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Hannah Peel Mary Casio – Journey To Cassiopeia £22.00 Genre: Leftfield / Experimental Label: My Own Pleasure SKU: MOP08V Formats: 1LP Released Date: 29th September 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Skyggespill Morphing Between Spaces and Phases Leftfield / Experimental | Optical Substance | 180g, 1LP, Includes CD Released 16th March 2015 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Skyggespill Morphing Between Spaces and Phases £19.00 Genre: Leftfield / Experimental Label: Optical Substance SKU: LPOSP006 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes CD Released Date: 16th March 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View BBC Radiophonic Workshop Fourth Dimension Leftfield / Experimental | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 26th May 2014 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders BBC Radiophonic Workshop Fourth Dimension £20.00 Genre: Leftfield / Experimental Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1035 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 26th May 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Leftfield / Experimental Start again
