Introducing Eulo Cramps, Call Super's fourth album that sits at the epicenter of a multifaceted project titled Tell Me I Didn't Choose This that draws on poetry, auto-biographical writing, painting and music. Melting improv, free jazz and the distinctive sound Call Super has perfected over the years with the helping hand of the invention of their "eharp," Eulo Cramps is a channel where the producer-artist exorcised trauma and epiphanies around their own coming-of-age story. The paintings series (which will be exhibited at a later date) tied to Tell Me I Didn't Choose This express these ideas more deeply, the canvas acting as a physical space for self-interrogation. One to usually remain in solitude whilst producing, on this new album Seaton breaks this rule and invites the distinctive voices of Julia Holter and Eden Samara to add their ethereal elemental resonance on tracks "Sapling" and "Illumina" -- the latter already noted as a Pitchfork favorite. Using their voices as a portal into Seaton's own personal sphere, they found respite in the falsetto of Holter and Samara. Whilst on "Goldwood" Elke Wardlaw lends her dulcet tones with a passage of spoken word that ebbs over Seaton's trickling melodies. The saxophone, played by Seaton's father, finds itself at home once again on this record too. A riveting and personal exploration, this album is Seaton's most powerful and distinctive to date.

Cherry Drops is a collection of tracks written by Call Super. It was started around the time they were working on a larger project called Tell Me I Didn't Choose This, that reflected on a period in their life of upheaval, trauma and self-discovery. That project is bound up in a series of compositions for a self-made instrument called an Epi-Harp, clarinet, piano and percussion and a collection of paintings, two of which feature on the covers of the two releases that make up Cherry Drops. However, the music on Cherry Drops became a release from that project, a distraction from painful reflections and recollections. It had to be music with a direct dancefloor connection because it was in those spaces where Call Super found release through those pivotal periods in their life.
