about

Debacle Records proudly presents "OHR EYN SOF - Youth Eternal" the latest from multi-media artist Garek Druss. Created during a fateful period of his life, the album is a testament to the power of little joys.

While the album was written during Garek Druss's cancer treatment, it is essential to emphasize that this is not a holistic record of his time with cancer. Instead, it focuses on the creative journey that emerged as a response to the treatment itself. "Youth Eternal" serves as a personal endeavor to counteract the difficulties of treatment and cultivate a sense of warmth and happiness in his time at home reeling from the effects of the neurotoxic alkylating agents. Sounds to make himself happy as he puts it. Though I do believe there is an element of cathartic processing this time as many of the tracks have sounds from the treatment facilities woven throughout.

While his previous album on Debacle Records "Soft Fascination" showed a new side to his work, a gradual softening and expanding of his sound, this album takes that and blooms and uplifts. It sits in the daylight, moving listeners into a world humming and buzzing with both gloom and novelty.

What I love about the album is for its heavy context the resulting tracks have seemingly low stakes, these are little tiny polished stones at the bottom of a river, machines made from found objects that spin and impress but have no other purpose. Garek is working with new instruments, new sounds, and lower concepts here, and as such he made his most confident record.
