German electronic composer Markus Mehr has issued the Watershed EP through the Hidden Shoal label. The release repurposes field recordings captured during the initial phase of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, shaping them into an abstract meditation on conflict and the act of listening.
The project explores themes of distance and the moral weight of attention, positioning the EP as a reflective piece for listeners who engage with electronic music beyond the dancefloor. The details were first reported by Igloo Magazine.
