{"product_id":"vinyl-yu-su-foundry-vinyl-lp","title":"Foundry (Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003ePresenting the remarkable second album by the Chinese musician, DJ and creative chef Yu Su. An evolution from her 2021 debut LP and two track single released last year, Foundry radiates a fresh, fully-fledged and far-reaching sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe nucleus of Foundry began with material penned for live performance at MUTEK in 2025, alongside a move to London which brought about new shifts in perspective. Searching for a style that was true both to her roots and progression as an artist, Yu ventured in a post-orientalist direction and came upon a language of ‘in-between music’.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eMixing the eclectic influence of her DJ sets with genre-defying collaborators and newfound taste for minimal and ambient techno, a dusky, dub-inflected character began to emerge. This broad palette reiterates Yu’s prior form in making connections across disciplines, which have not only consisted of music, but also multisensory endeavours which incorporate taste and smell.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWith cover art featuring hammered metalwork by the artist Brendan Ratzlaff, for Yu the foundry represents a nexus of creation; a shared workspace where collaborators combined their materials and skills. With the input of Seefeel, Dip In The Pool, and Memotone, together their broad spectrum of aural elements underwent a chemical transformation and were forged into something new.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWell-designed, ergonomic yet occasionally amorphous, the effect is that of meticulous freedom, both controlled and free flowing. Using immersive sound design, Yu creates inspiring spaces to revel in, which are warm yet steeped in shadow, with flashes of silvery light.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RHYTHM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40428322717897,"sku":"478452","price":75.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0566\/7120\/7498\/files\/478452-Product-0-I-639158716803237266.jpg?v=1780274947","url":"https:\/\/www.jbhifi.co.nz\/products\/vinyl-yu-su-foundry-vinyl-lp","provider":"JB Hi-Fi NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
