Vinyl LP pressing. Cotillon is the moniker of Jordan Corso, a New York City based artist with ties to both San Francisco and Los Angeles. After the release of his critically acclaimed self-titled debut and extensive touring, Corso sold everything he had but a bag full of clothes and his music gear and boarded a plane for New York. The time was right for me to make a New York album, Corso says. He wrote everyday relentlessly taking inspiration from French new wave, Japanese literature, uppers, downers, big city culture, and a romantic relationship. The first person he showed his demos to was Shane Butler of New York via Boston's Quilt, who's work Corso strongly admires. One of the things I really like about Jordan is that he is caught in this interstice between high-culture & low-culture; between the cleaner aspects of life and the grittier, explains Butler. I heard both these sides of him in the demos he showed me. Jordan also seemed really into this idea of making a 'New York' record. As someone who grew up partly in New York City, the prospect of making a 'New York' record... is a very complicated thing. That concept wrestles with some of the ideas that I saw in Jordan's personality. It is something of the high & the low; the grime & the glitter; the superficial & the genuine.
