Album of the week: March 10 – Witness K

March 10th 2023

Witness K’s pensive self-titled debut is a masterclass in avant-garde yet restrained no wave, ambient and post-punk. The sonic intricacies of the record are explored through field recordings, Maeve Parker’s poetry and a complex array of instrumentation. Weaving in tense flute melodies, nebulous electronics and even a saxophone feature from Marcus Whale, the record is teeming with esoteric compositions and ruminative, soft-spoken vocal performances. Featuring some of Sydney DIY’s finest, Witness K’s record is subtle, precise yet brooding with atmosphere.
