Ecka Mordecai & Rory Salter
Ecka Morecai is a London-based artist. She has projects with Revox tape performer Valerio Tricoli in the duo Mordecoli, and in the trio Circæa with Andrew Chalk and Tom James Scott. Her album Promise & Illusion was released on Otoroku in 2022.
Rory Salter makes music under various monikers and has released albums with Alter, TakuRoku, Infant Tree, Teeth, MAL, Bison, Kashual Plastik and more. He lives in London.
Together Ecka and Rory forge soundscapes using an assorted bag of tools – cello, voice, field recordings, cassette tape, feedback, and amplified objects – without giving precedence to any. While their performances are comprised of moments of subtlety and restraint, they are far from straightforward: sounds that had evoked feelings of tenderness and comfort can shift almost imperceptibly to summon a feeling of tense disquiet; incidental sounds of the performance space coalesce with the considered non-musical components of their soundscape to the extent that the two become confoundingly indistinguishable.
Ecka and Rory’s adeptness in eliciting emotional dizziness through their muted yet entrancing collaboration allows their sounds to resound beyond the compelling immediacy of their performance.
