Memory Pearl is the alias of Moshe Fisher-Rozenberg, a multi-instrumentalist, producer, and consummate collaborator. Under this moniker, he works from a decidedly electronic foundation, creating lush sonic landscapes and dazzling bouquets of texture that glisten with nostalgia. His palette is full of warm and saturated hues rife with allusions to assorted technological eras and electronic music idioms. For his debut, Music for 7 Paintings, Fisher-Rozenberg traveled to art galleries across North America, searching for paintings that could be translated into music. The album is a collection of seven tracks – each directly referencing an homage to a single painting by Joan Mitchell, Robert Ryman, Lee Krasner, Helen Frankenthaler, Franz Kline, or Jackson Pollock. His instinct for how to translate the emotive context of visual art into sound has been honed in prior collaborative work on kinetic sculptures, immersive installations and film scores. The resulting compositions are a mesmerizing blend of analog and digital synths, described as “a study in contemplation” and unique blend of “synth arpeggios, twinkling pianos, choral voice tones, and scrambled alien broadcasts in a wash of fourth world ambience” (Aquarium Drunkard).
