{"product_id":"tomu-dj-antagonist","title":"Tomu DJ - antagonist","description":"Critically acclaimed American producer, Tomu DJ (Pitchfork, Dazed, NPR++), debuts on sound as language with her fourth album, '\u003ci\u003eantagonist\u003c\/i\u003e.' \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRecorded in the artist’s Oakland, California home throughout 2025 using only a digital piano, her intention for the album was to “free myself from conventional notions of electronic music”. This is perhaps seen clearly on standout tracks “loose interpretation” and “careful deliberation”, which in their cinematic splendor evoke the beauty and thoughtfulness of classical music. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEven so, '\u003ci\u003eantagonist\u003c\/i\u003e' is “not intended to be like classical music, rather a stream of consciousness akin to spoken word poetry”. It is easy to see what she means on tracks like “\u003ci\u003eantagonist\u003c\/i\u003e” and “dance” which weave familiar elements into personal narratives of loneliness, perseverance and redemption. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDespite its specific sonic palette, '\u003ci\u003eantagonist\u003c\/i\u003e' fits right in with Tomu DJ’s discography, continuing to build on the musical ecosystem she has thoughtfully tended to over the course of the last decade.","brand":"sound as language","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":51081247916310,"sku":"RMX-64026","price":23.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7750\/2998\/files\/8406ce49c4017f046adbecaabf238e25.jpg?v=1772811355","url":"https:\/\/resident-music-uk.myshopify.com\/products\/tomu-dj-antagonist","provider":"Resident Music UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
