Brooklyn-based violinist, composer and producer Zachary Mezzo’s Home Movies: a collection of field recordings, DIY chamber music, and dissected songwriting. Mezzo’s solo work melds a wide variety of recording methods and audio sources with raw takes of violin, voice, and processed piano to create an unusual collage of texture and style. Home Movies explores the moments between these sounds and amplifies them to expose the cracks. As a follow-up to his electronic-focused noise-violin debut Proximity (2024), Home Movies follows a more organic path, inviting listeners to reflect in the quiet spaces created, while still maintaining a dissonant edge and a through-line of discomfort that is essential to Mezzo’s writing.
