Temporary Stored

KMRU’s reconception of what found-sound creations and exploratory music could convey continued on one of his most striking and passionate releases, 2022’s Temporary Stored. Conceived as a extension of the continuing cause of reclaiming art and archival holdings back to Africa from western museums, Temporary Stored is split between six shorter pieces and a nearly hour-long one, with KMRU combining performances on newly repatriated instruments, speech and discussion samples and deep synthesizer work to create an involving call to action.
