Press info: In answering the central question “Can Such Delightful Times Go
On Forever?”, Daniel probes the limitations of pleasure in the midst of our dystopian contemporary landscape. What kind of solace can music offer in the face of the rising
tides of fascism, authoritarianism, cruelty and genocide?
No compositions could be adequate without direct anti-fascist action, but in defiance
of an increasingly brutal world, this suite embraces the values of intimacy, community
and unapologetic beauty as idealized counterpoints to a damaged, ugly present.
Artwork
Drawing upon poetry, myth, and compositional traditions while exploring throughlines between the electronic dancefloor and the classical conservatory, this album hopes to provide a makeshift queer refuge in the face of surrounding collapse. Unabashedly emotional and vulnerable despite its lavish colors, it marks a surprisingly delicate metamorphosis from a restless musical deviant.”
