about the cassette
Having lived and worked in numerous musical directions for many years, Semay Wuโs begrudgingly faithful cello still remains at her sideโfrom Merseyside, to Manchester, to The Netherlands, and now to Central Scotland. Always trying to push the age-old boundaries of how the instrument is viewed and heard, her focus has led her to explore further collaborative and everyday improvisations, blending electronics with mixed media and a variety of gestural art disciplines.
Raspberry Hotel is Semay Wuโs first foray into recorded solo work. Finding it hard to stick to any one brief, she filled a room of a local studio space with toys, everyday objects, instruments, and her cello. Sitting on the floor, she recorded whatever came to mind. A week-long session of improvisations was then taken home, spliced up, and composed and mixed into pieces. Raspberry Hotel is made up of fleeting, off-the-cuff performances that can be listened to as separate tracks or as one long piece.
