Golden Cut is an alt-classical electronic trio with members Jeremy Black, Shelley Sörensen and Rachel Maio. The debut EP Haunted Ghosts was released in September 2022.
Haunted Ghosts is a visual EP by Golden Cut in collaboration with dancer Miriam Arnold and filmmaker Ramin Aryaie, with contributions by singer Awir Leon and poet Rose Droll. Shot completely with a drone on a journey through Europe, the four-part film explores different emotional states and their embodiment. Capturing dancer Miriam Arnold as she discovers her outer surroundings and inner emotional landscapes, the film is a convergence of sound, movement and improvisation with distinctive aerial cinematography. The music of Golden Cut is also created in an improvisational setting, Jeremy Black uses live electronics, effects and samplers to sculpt the sounds of violist Shelley Sörensen and cellist Rachel Maio into emotional loops, rhythmic accents and lush soundscapes. These provide the foundation for raw emotional live production to take deeper form in this EP release.
