Midwife (aka Madeline Johnston) and Angel Diaz (Vyva Melinkolya) have announced a new collaborative album. The 5-song project is titled Orbweaving, and it arrives May 12 via the Flenser. Its first single, ‘NMP’, is out today, and you can check it out below.
Orbweaving was recorded in the Chihuahuan Desert during the summer of 2021. According to a press release, “the record explores themes hopelessness, calling on a higher power, being alone, and the sublime horror of the natural world” and “seeks to thematically and sonically create a web like structure – a gauze of sorrow and visceral connective thread.”
Last year, Midwife released the song ‘Sickworld’. Her latest album, Luminol, came out in 2021. Revisit our Artist Spotlight Q&A with Midwife.
