Multibody Records seeks to platform artists that explore the physical and emotional multiplicities through music and performative arts. To mark the release of Choices, the debut LP from artist and label co-founder Jung. The label invites London-based artists Nwakke and Misha Faulty to co-create a night of off-kilter pop, industrial ambience, and deconstructed RnB.
Jung is a London-based songwriter. His debut album Choices explores the fluidity of the self. Through the mediation of songs, poetry, instrumentals, rap, and voice-note recordings, the album seesaws between obfuscation and revelation, in an attempt to move beyond the binary and embrace a plurality of selves. For this performance, Jung is joined by label co-founder and creative collaborator Alvarezz and Caius Williams on bass.
NWAKKE is an artist, DJ, and musician working with dance, video, and theatre. This performance identity is a means for discovery, world-building, and research into experience, histories, knowledge, and nature. thinking about care, thinking about relationship, thinking about freedom and safety <3
Misha Faulty’s music sweats through heaving sobs, snot bubbles leaking from nostrils. Spasming in noise and curdled club rhythms in an ongoing panic attack, she draws influence from body horror and deafness. Having self-released an EP, I Trusted You in 2022 she will be releasing an album on Multibody Records in 2024.
Alvarezz is a London based Latinx artist exploring notions of alienation, identity and imagined history through found-sound and recorded media from across Latin America.
Caius Williams is an improviser, bassist, and composer from London with a varied practice including improvised music, electronic music, and projects exploring experimental approaches to composition.
Alongside his involvement in various groups and partnerships in and around London, Caius works frequently as a bandleader, and has recently completed and recorded his first large-ensemble project (‘Thread’), and a solo project for double bass. Some current collaborative/supportive roles include a duo project with guitarist Tara Cunningham, playing for songwriter and producer ‘feeo’, and recently working in ‘Lifetones’: a project led by Charles Bullen of ‘This Heat’, alongside working with many of London’s notable improvisers.
He has been running and curating the ‘Grain’ residency at Avalon Cafe in Bermondsey for the last year, and is in collaboration with saxophonist Tom Challenger on releasing a series of recordings of improvisations and new works, recorded as part of the residency.
