paul and maurey is the duo of ashley paul and sakiko mori. 'satellite', is an extended album with new and unreleased material, based off the micro edition cassette released on wagtail in late 2010 that sold out in an instant. this version reveals their expansive, open ended and dynamic approach, combining ashley's intuitive writing and vocals, with their propulsive and multi-layered rhythms, clatter and dynamics from the ensemble sound. both performing on a wide range of instruments - sakiko on keyboards, percussion, harmonium and ashley on guitar, green box, reeds and even tuba. these two play multiple instruments at once and often switching in the middle of songs.
together they create a unique world of small scale/micro-sounds and non-musical gestures, somehow fitting this all within a song structure that really needs to be heard to be understood. in doing this, paul & maurey make something oddly beautiful out of the rawest material.
satellite is an lp edition, printed on clear vinyl, pink labels, with black matter inner in a custom, hand painted and silk screened jacket, in a limited edition of 340 copies.

Angel,
I heard your interview with Jason Woodbury on Aquarium Drunkard's "Transmissions" podcast today. It was truly remarkable and touched my heart. I bought this album immediately afterward and am so grateful to you for this nourishing music in these strange, trying days. I hope I can time my next trip to Chicago to be able to see you perform live. Thank you! Michael Feltes
