Moses Archuleta is searching for room to grow. As a founding member of <a href="spotify:artist:38zTZcuN7nFvVJ6auhc6V3" data-name="Deerhunter">Deerhunter</a> and the indispensable indie group’s longtime drummer, Archuleta has always thrived in collaborative settings. But with his more electronic-oriented project Moon Diagrams, he’s found a new voice, working to express his own creative vision as an individual: “I feel like I’m learning how to become a self-possessed artist for the first time in my life,” he says. That need for space to stretch out and breathe isn’t just figurative: Cemetery Classics, the latest Moon Diagrams full-length, was largely informed by the isolation and alienation of the pandemic era, striving to capture the distinctly overpowering feeling of vastness that comes with hearing music in a big room.
The album includes the serene vocals of <a href="spotify:artist:0L3BgWZcLnRmCNBE6flGZu" data-name="Anastasia Coope">Anastasia Coope</a>, as well as additional contributions from <a href="spotify:artist:6UU6YXQaFGQToWN6U28Dcb" data-name="Gang Gang Dance">Gang Gang Dance</a> guitarist Josh Diamond James Ford, regular Deerhunter comrade Pat Flegel / <a href="spotify:artist:0TZExq5Dma8hecEIAKwQYA" data-name="Cindy Lee">Cindy Lee</a> , and <a href="spotify:artist:31DXlldabwPHwu6dYevuzK" data-name="Simian Mobile Disco">Simian Mobile Disco</a> co-founder and production wizard <a href="spotify:artist:4rzx4iwzF4sCJns8pelK55" data-name="James Ellis Ford">James Ellis Ford</a> . Even though Cemetery Classics is still a group effort, there’s something about it that feels so intuitive as if was handmade, from the efforts of a sole creator: more than just a solo project, Moon Diagrams sees Moses Archuleta stretching his wings as a sonic auteur with his own distinct worldview to share.
