about

Daliah is a Nashville, TN based Californian named John Clubb whose output to date has consisted of a tape on Chilean label NO PROBLEMA as well as self releases work. He has been mixing and recording for around a decade and his current approach is based around simple melodies, recorded on the fly with a portable midi controller and laptop. He then goes through a layering process which enables him to escape from reality as he gets lost within the loops.

John has a wide-ranging set of influences to his sound, however he cites Japanese musician Hitoshi Yoshimura’s Music For 9 Postcards as a particular inspiration behind his album for Whitelabrecs.

This formed a starting point for ‘Holy Mountain’ as John was transfixed by how Yoshimura conveyed his memory of several moments of time into sound.

Holy Mountain is a set of recordings which serve as sombre drones and/or sleepy lullabies. The curious approach to production blends live instrument recordings with an electronic sampling approach and includes tiny fragments of detail such as field recordings and the subtle sound of breathing.

Breathing leads onto how John sees his creation process and for him, writing, playing and recording Ambient music is his form of meditation.
Holy Mountain is a sonic journal which documents John’s journey through good and bad, over a two year period. He keeps the exact content of this journal close to his chest and we the listeners are left with a suite of beautiful sound in which we can only dream of how his accompanying postcard memories might appear. As you too get lost inside the loops of John’s journey, you can gaze at the accompanying artwork by Federica Jeanne de Luca, which helps set an abstract scene.
