Release Notes:
The Luyas are a band from Montreal, Quebec. They have been playing music
together since 2006. What began as a collaboration between Jessie Stein, Pietro
Amato, and Stefan Schneider shifted over the years to include Mathieu
Charbonneau, Bucky Wheaton and Michael Feuerstack. Through many tours and
personnel adjustments, no love has been lost between these friends. 'Human
Voicing' is a leap of faith taken together by all 6 musicians.
JessieÆs unexpected turns and feely rhythms on guitar, bass and keys are much of
what gives the music its particular character. Pietro forms the sonic and
harmonic foundation with keyboard and horn tones that run the spectrum from warm
and mysterious to dark and confusing. The double drum foundation of Bucky and
Stef was key to the improvisations that generated the songs. Michael alternates
between darting brush strokes and enveloping open guitar chords, providing a
sense of spatial depth. All of these core elements, and the occasional
otherworldly flourish of MathieuÆs modular synth, are brought into unlikely
focus by SteinÆs fauvist and fractured lyrical perspective - resulting in a
unique psychedelia.
This odd collaboration has yielded a lot of truly magical and weird music. While
the result can loosely be described as rock music, the band is spirited and
impressionistic by nature - always making priorities of curiosity and
inventiveness in order to make something soulful and surprising.
'Human Voicing' was made at Breakglass Studios with nothing but the loosest of
outlines and a few skeletal sketches. Along with 2016Æs Says You EP, the new
album was produced and mixed by the inimitable Jace Lacek (Besnard Lakes).
Together they mark the bandÆs first releases since 2012Æs ôAnimatorö.
