Album lore

EPHEMERIS, a singular release by DJ Celeste Lear on High Vibe Records in 2025, distills her eclectic interests into one extended piece. The record melds cello and upright bass with deep phunk rhythms, crafting a dense, organic low end that is both raw and precise. The fusion of bowed strings with electronic bass pulses suggests a studio session attentive to texture and space, though details of collaborators remain unrecorded.With only one track spanning the entirety of the release, EPHEMERIS challenges conventional format, inviting the listener to engage with the record as a focused artifact rather than a collection. Its modest circulation—just over sixty scrobbles on Last.fm—places it in the quiet corners of the crate-digging canon, a signal for those attuned to the rarer intersections of string instrumentation and phunk grooves.
