Ouri Previews New ‘Daisy Cutter’ Album with Title Track

Montreal-based producer and multi-instrumentalist Ouri announces her new album Daisy Cutter due Oct 24th. Alongside the announcement Ouri shares an early taste of all that’s to come with the title track of the record. Throughout Daisy Cutter, Ouri builds a world out of a radical experimentation with desire, discipline, and intimacy. What began as a practice of letting everything flow without judgment grew into a study of freedom’s contradictions: the pull between safety and risk, commitment and release, control and surrender.

The album’s title, Daisy Cutter, carries this duality. Borrowed from a bomb, devastating and absolute, it also evokes the delicate act of trimming a flower. Ouri keeps both in play, moving between sweeping force and precise gestures. Out of this tension arises music that feels both intimate and insurgent. Speaking about how the album came into being Ouri notes:

“All these trusting miles in the dark led me to these 13 songs. Daisy Cutter is music but it’s also the leader of a militia, a part of me. Like a rotor, I started a practice that brought all this album to life and it’s gonna keep spinning even when I let go of the wheel.”

Ouri engineers, mixes, and masters everything herself, shaping tactile and often nocturnal sounds that shift just as they seem to settle. Across the album, Ouri places herself within a community that feels at once real and imagined. Around her, friends and collaborators assemble as comrades, an underground militia intent on cultivating a future sound. Longtime allies including Mobilegirl, Oli XL, Bby Eco, Charlotte Day Wilson, Bamo Yendé, Cecil Believe, Duncan Hood, Jonah Yano, Sea Oleena and Cowboy Lansky join Ouri across the album, their contributions recorded in borrowed spaces, apartments, and other non-studio settings, exploring various ways of being in the world that allow for the contradictions of fortification and desire.
