,: An iconic Canadian media figure, Sook-Yin Lee is an :,
: award-winning filmmaker, musician, actor, visual artist and :
:' broadcaster who has immersed herself in myriad creative ':
,: collaborations. Many of them were made with her life partner and :,
: frequent co-creator Adam Litovitz, including their 2015 ethereal :
:' electroacoustic album jooj. Though Adam passed away in 2019, ':
,: his work with Sook-Yin lives on with jooj two, an unapologetic :,
: dive into playful art-pop and a document of a lost language :
:' between lovers. The album will arrive on April 9 via Mint ':
,: Records. :,
: :
:' (TW: Suicide) While financial difficulties and external ':
,: pressures contributed to the end of their romantic relationship, :,
: Sook-Yin and Adam remained best friends and creative partners. :
:' As he was busy with a soundtrack for Netflix, Adam gave ':
,: Sook-Yin his blessing to continue working on their second album :,
: without him. Increasingly, Adam struggled with anxiety and :
:' depression, compounded by a prescription drug dependency that ':
,: exacerbated insomnia and pain. Tragically, he died by suicide :,
: June 16, 2019. :
:' ':
,: AdamÆs passing was a profound loss for Sook-Yin and so many who :,
: loved him. Sook-Yin saw pieces of AdamÆs irrepressible spirit ù :
:' as well as the story of their relationship ù contained within ':
,: the music they had recorded for jooj two and was determined to :,
: share it with the world. With the assistance of mixer Steve :
:' Chahley (U.S. Girls, Badge ╔poque Ensemble, Darlene Shrugg) ':
,: Sook-Yin completed the album and will share it with the world :,
: this spring. :
:' ':
,: Despite the circumstances surrounding its completion, jooj two :,
: is a celebration of life, especially AdamÆs. Playful :
:' experimentalism drives the pairÆs life-long love of pop music ':
,: and taps into moments from across the genreÆs vast history from :,
: the warm psychedelic sunshine of ôRumble Like a Strangerö to the :
:' neon lit autobahn of ôRun Away of Herö and the buzzing euphoria ':
,: of ôRe-Veil.ö :,
: :
:' There is intentionality and inherent uniqueness to their ':
,: songwriting approach that first took shape by Sook-Yin :,
: responding to a musical phrase with vocal melodies and stream of :
:' consciousness lyrics. Those experiments were transcribed and ':
,: delightfully interpreted by Adam then returned to Sook-Yin for :,
: finessing. The resulting wordplay across 11 enigmatic and :
:' accessible tracks, evokes the feeling of a new language being ':
,: born. :,
: :
:' jooj two is a fitting collaboration to cap off a lifetime of ':
,: work together. :,
