----------------------------------------
Sudan Archives has always been a champion of self-will and self-belief: A violinist who learned by ear and from YouTube, a gonzo pop star who works outside the mainstream, a deft creator of personal mythology who moved to Los Angeles from Cincinnati, Ohio, to make music that fuses her love of the violin and fiddle music with the contemporary Black underground, all in pursuit of what she calls Orchestral Black Dance Music. Brittney Parks embodies the idea that following your own muse is the surest route to artistic and personal fulfillment.
On her third album, THE BPM, Parks embraces that idea fully. If her last two albums looked to the past – embodying both goddess and muse on 2019’s Athena, writing a punky coming-of-age tale for 2022’s Natural Brown Prom Queen – THE BPM imagines a dazzling, chrome-plated future in which we’re all tapped into our own sense of rhythm. As she sings on the album’s title track and thesis: “The BPM is the power.” “No one can take away your rhythm from you – no one can take away your self-will,” says Parks. The ideas she explores on the record all ultimately draw back to this one idea. “All those things can be your own power if you utilize them right.”
