Yumi Zouma
“Sålka Gets Her Hopes Up (Mark McGuire Remix)”

Yumi Zouma

While the press shots and cover photo for Yumi Zouma’s debut EP suggest the work of a synth-powered solo artist, the project is actually the byproduct of an collaboration that cuts across several countries and cities. Namely Paris, New York and Christchurch, the current homes of New Zealand natives Charlie Ryder, Kim Pflaum and Josh Burgess. The camera shy trio is cast in a new light this week via a remix EP that includes previously shared contributions from Wild Nothing and Kaito, as well as the following Autobahn burner from Mark McGuire.

Have a listen to three-fourths of the Cascine release below, and be sure to scroll down for details about an all-too-brief tour—more like a roaming showcase, really—the label is co-hosting in the home bases of Ghostly International, 100% Silk, and Arbutus Records
