Asher White’s music is a complex and heartfelt reaction to the churn of our modern world. With tender intimacy and resounding anxiety, White takes a wide view through the lens of her own queer sexual politics and transgender identity; what does it mean to renew, to progress, to transform? What is lost, gained, or irreversibly altered?

At 22 years old, White has developed a massive self-released discography: over a dozen albums since 2015, each one started the moment the&nbsp;last one was finished. New Excellent Woman is a distillation of these experiments and discoveries, a new achievement in songwriting that&nbsp;stands astride the cracks in the earth and lopsided ground. Songs jump between styles like a pubescent sex drive, all locked together by&nbsp;White’s ability to pull melody out of chaos.

New Excellent Woman wanders a meticulous cut-and-pasted path paved by forebears like The Books and Animal Collective. It sounds like a&nbsp;live band, bursting with kinetic energy, but the album was constructed alone in her Providence, RI studio, where she arranged, performed,&nbsp;recorded, and mixed the record herself. The ingenuity of Dirty Projectors is laced with the catchiness and warmth of The Kinks, and maybe a&nbsp;dash of Elephant 6. It’s like an ADHD party and you’re the first to arrive.

New Excellent Woman is built from detritus, often quite literally: from the thrift store amplifiers and scavenged keyboards she uses to her&nbsp;penchant for discovering and sampling obscure YouTube videos into her songs. The thick fog of “Bedsong” is made up of little more than a&nbsp;Hammond organ found on craigslist and a few muffled drums piled with rags; opener “Ptolemy” uses a seemingly random video of teenage&nbsp;boredom as its textural and rhythmic backdrop.&nbsp;

The ceaseless march of our modern world can feel both awe-inspiring and abysmal. New highways and condominiums are erected in a matter&nbsp;of weeks as historic burial grounds are demolished. Even short TikToks seem to expire in real time. Asher White won’t change things, but New

Excellent Woman gives us a fresh and poignant perspective of the shifting world around us through her eyes - and maybe a connection is the&nbsp;best we can hope for. For fans of Vashti Bunyan, Elephant 6 and Beck.
