The Fool, John Rossiter’s new album under the Young Jesus banner, took root when Shahzad Ismaily, the vaunted multi-instrumentalist, got in touch proposing a collaboration. They started improvising together in New York, in between Rossiter’s time at home in Los Angeles, where he passed days gardening and singing with friends Alex Babbitt and Alex Lappin. Eventually, the two groups came into the same orbit, collaborating on Rossiter’s baroque synthpop symphonies between New York and Los Angeles. The result sounds like a brazen emotional outpouring after 2022’s more indoors Shepherd Head; the zippy “Brenda & Diane” led the LP.

James Devane: Searching [Umeboshi]

James Devane continues to explore left-field compositional processes through minimal techno on his new album, Searching, for the Swedish label Umeboshi. “The recordings,” Devane said in press materials, “are the result of chance. Using hours of source material, everything was ‘chosen,’ manipulated, and assembled at random via custom software without concern for key, tempo, measures, or rhythm. A search button and a save button.”
