about

DWL029

"I'll never capture the sun/My effort will be undone/with every step I take/The motion that we make"

What does it mean to settle? And is it possible to feel truly grounded when the world is constantly moving? These are questions that the Berlin-based songwriter Jake Bellissimo tackles on their new EP “The Motion That We Make”. Opening with a story about a delayed subway that turns into the death of a close friend (“The Last Block of Manhattan”), the collection of songs rapidly changes perspective and cities, ending in Munich, Germany (“Am ende des Hoagartns," recorded with the Neues Kollektiv München). Throughout its varied instrumentation, the Motion That We Make also features collaborations with Gerald Busby (composer for Robert Altman’s “3 Women”) and Kitchen, among others.
