Sound Methods 007: Taylor Deupree & Joseph Branciforte Sound Methods Podcast

I’m really excited about this episode with Taylor Deupree and Joseph Branciforte. We spent over an hour together discussing an incredible project they’ve completed: a reimagined, reinterpreted, and re-recorded version of Taylor’s seminal 2002 album, Stil.
Recorded entirely with acoustic instrumentation performed by humans, this new edition, called Sti.ll, is a complete and total reinvention of the original. Hearing Joe and Taylor discuss the albums - both the original and the remake - was an awesome experience. You can tell that this experience left a mark on both of them, and I’m glad to have had the opportunity to hear about it in this interview.
Sti.ll is a collaborative release between labels Nettwerk, Greyfade, and Deupree’s own 12k, due out on May 17th. Along with a vinyl release, Greyfade has announced a special edition hardcover book, the second installment in their FOLIO series that is available for pre-order on Bandcamp.
Note for those in the US: there will be an album release show at Public Records in New York City on May 22, 2024, featuring Taylor & Joe alongside some of the album’s personnel. Opening sets will be provided by Jack Quartet and Joe Branciforte & Theo Bleckmann. For tickets, visit the information page here.
