Creative Process as Ritual
w/ Xyla
A conversation with Xyla, San Francisco based electronic artist, whose compositions sprout from a blend of IDM, footwork and R&B influenced by her extensive training as a classical french hornist. As of October 2020, Xyla’s record Ways was released via Leaving Records. Together Callie and Xyla discuss how the creative process can act as ritual during times of isolation. This discussion moves with fluidity in exploring how certain sonic textures can manifest in the body and inform the way one builds a composition. What is our relationship with vessels that create sound and how do these intimate relationships develop and shift over time? The conversation is woven together with reflection of this past year and how music has supported community members in maintaining and nourishing connection.
