about

Accidental Jnr’s Room 2 series returns with an EP of experimental sonics and post-club refractions from Damos Room and LYAM. EIN (Everything Is Noise) is a prime example of a happy accident – five tracks pulled together from the scattered remains of a project lost to hardware failure.

London-based trio Damos Room inaugurated their DR Viewings series in 2020 as a bi-monthly project to explore the possibilities of reworking previously discarded musical material into longform remixes. Having worked with their own reject sounds as well as those of Polyop, The Organ Project and Lixo, they started making plans for a fifth installment with LYAM, a UK artist working at the intersection of rap, club and soundsystem culture. Although tracks and sounds were exchanged, a hard drive malfunction mid-2021 derailed the project, leaving Damos Room with only a few sketches of ideas remaining. Over the months after the data loss, they revisited these sketches and repurposed some of the material in live performances and broadcasts on Radio Alhara before deciding with LYAM to collaboratively remix the remnants of previous remixes into the tracks you can hear on this EP.

LYAM had delivered their initial sounds with an accompanying tag of ‘superfuture’ – an interpretive term which Damos Room attempted to apply to every sound in the project’s initial phase. Even in the Frankensteined end results which make up EIN, the term carries weight. There are flashes of steely, rhythmic focus audible in the 140 step of the title track and the mutant electro of ‘Slurr___y’, but these moments are surrounded by dislodged sound design, interference and unexpected tangents, delivered with the irreverence and wit which is increasingly becoming Damos Room’s calling card.
