The News From Utopia, the debut release from Austin Wulliman, broadcasts a transmission of coloristic beauty powered by an obsession with a series of images and musical conspiracy theories. A cast of sonic characters find new expression in each vignette within this non-linear narrative: an impressionistic dream of the sea emerging under desert stars, a self-portrait from inside the eyeballs, a parody of the demagogue, the view from inside the social media algorithm, a reading of Zadie Smith’s “The Lazy River”. Composed, recorded, and mixed by Wulliman, his violins swell with lush harmonic warmth, bustle with neurotic energy, and spin webs of rhythmic buoyancy, making note of fleetings moments of clarity as time slips away.
