Different Rooms finds Jeremiah Chiu and Marta Sofia Honer file their patchwork method of tape-splicing, improvisation and studio play down to a fine, sharpened nib. Written and assembled between late 2024 and early 2025 in their adjoining Los Angeles studios, the album weaves live performance with granular synthesis, viola stacks, and manipulated field recordings gathered from train platforms, city streets and domestic spaces. Unlike the drifting landscapes of Recordings From The Aland Islands, their newest LP as a pair keeps rooted in a replication of deep urban listening, attuned to passer-by street textures. Jeff Parker and Josh Johnson appear on archival improvisations folded seamlessly in; though despite outside collaborations the sequence loosely mirrors itself, with motifs returning in altered form, echoing the project's core idea: though we move through different life "rooms", they are in uncanny enfilade, each ghostlily similar to the last.
