[New York, NY] – Today (19th July, 2023), historic London-based independent label Warp Records and multidisciplinary musical arthouse conglomerate jMedia announce a groundbreaking new partnership.
Of the partnership, Warp Records says "We're elated to be working with Slauson Malone 1 at Warp - we support and believe in Jasper's vision wholeheartedly and can't wait for what's to come."
Slauson Malone 1 is the musical project and performance piece of artist Jasper Marsalis.
Slauson Malone 1’s signing with Warp Records unleashes the highly-awaited next chapter of artistic output from Marsalis, succeeding his two prior musical releases 2019’s A Quiet Farwell, 2016-2018 (Crater Speak) and 2020’s Vergangenheitsbewältigung (Crater Speak), about which Rate Your Music user SendTrackOne wrote: “This is not a straightforward work of art, nor is it a hopeful one, yet Malone’s stripped-down collection of recapitulations is nonetheless compelling in its blatant need to exist.”
Slauson Malone 1 also announces his headlining US tour beginning October 12 in Montreal, and concluding at New York’s Bowery Ballroom on October 22. The new performances are underpinned by a set of Slauson Malone 1 live dates earlier this year alongside Brooklyn MC MIKE, and a forthcoming set of live dates on the West Coast with King Krule in September.
On October 6th, 2023, multi-disciplinary artist Jasper Marsalis aka Slauson Malone 1 returns with his second LP, EXCELSIOR. Listen now.
