Description
A few years ago, Angel Olsen quietly formed somethingscosmic, a new imprint and a home for Olsen to have “the flexibility to release when and how I want to with the help from my longtime partners at Jagjaguwar”. Somethingscosmic’s second release, ‘Cosmic Waves Volume 1’ is a compilation reimagined as a dialogue; Side A features artists chosen by Olsen, with each artist choosing their own song for the collection. Side B is a collection of songs from the same artists, but chosen by Olsen and recorded by her. Each, unsurprisingly, illuminates a star in the constellation of talents that make Angel Olsen such a spectacular and enduring artist. Hearing Olsen refract the artists’ songs back to them reveals not just the depth of Olsen’s imagination, but the multiple masters at work across the collection as well.
Cosmic Waves Volume 1 is a compilation of artists curated by Angel Olsen; each artist has a song of their own on Side A, and a cover song of theirs by Olsen on side B. Featured artist are: Camp Saint Helene, Coffin Prick, Poppy Jean Crawford, Maxim Ludwig, Sarah Grace White. Cosmic Waves Volume 1 is the second release under Angel Olsen’s some things cosmic imprint, in partnership with Jagjaguwar.
