Jozef Van Wissem This Is My Blood Vinyl

"Jozef Van Wissem’s new album This Is My Blood opens and closes on scorched, hallucinatory lute reveries, music that seems to shimmer in the heat of abandoned horizons rather than unfold in time.According to the press release, born from improvisations for Maquina, a desert-shot psych-film, these pieces stretch toward a renewed patience for duration, where repetition becomes ritual and listening turns devotional. Darkness here is not theatrical but intimate, a slow circling around grief, erosion, and the quiet violence of memory, briefly punctured by the lone vocal incantation “Remission.”Trained in Renaissance discipline yet scarred by no wave abrasion, Jozef Van Wissem fuses ancient strings with drones, electronics, and field noise into a music both ascetic and confrontational. It’s a body of work that feels suspended between monastery and wasteland, arcane yet forward-leaning, already poised to unfurl further on an expansive 2026–27 world tour.” - @sonofmarketing
