EMA shares new track ‘Satellites’ & signs to City Slang / Matador

EMA has unveiled a new track ‘Satellites’, the first new music from the Portland-based artist since the brilliantly scuffed debut album Past Life Martyred Saints was released to a multitude of acclaim in May 2011.

Taken from her anticipated second album The Future’s Void, due for release in Spring 2014, via new label City Slang (for Europe, and Matador for the rest of the world), ‘Satellites’ hints at a further emboldened Erika M. Anderson, without forgoing the industrial-noise and glorious fuzz of her solo debut and previous work with Gowns, Crucially, she still maintains the visceral songwriting and a DIY recording ethos unique to herself (aided once again by Leif Shackelford on production duties). Opening with a wall of hiss, scree and galloping piano motif, ‘Satellites’ bursts into a flame of feedback and bass to provide one her best tracks to date.

The track also introduces us to some of the new album’s metaphysical themes, of struggling to understand where we fit in the digital age. ‘Satellites’ explores the places where everyone has equal access, but is also under constant surveillance; “We fought the wars with information. Outer space seems very cold.”

With ‘Satellites’, EMA continues to evoke a distinctive sonic signature that saw her rightfully recognised as one of the most singular artists to emerge in 2011, and is likely to see her bound into the public consciousness once again in 2014.
