Taking the grand tradition of bedroom pop to its logical conclusion, the wave-crash sounds of Bediquette were always meant to be experienced in solitude. Committed to social distancing before it was mandated, Bediquette has created a project dedicated to the intimacy of listening alone, manufacturing the holy shroud of you and your favourite album at 2am. Vowing never to play live, Bediquette's latest offering, the Not Now EP, continues the artist's exploration of his own private monologue. Taking inspiration from the chasms that yawn between relationships, and the uncertainty with which we navigate all human interaction.

Bediquette is the solo bedroom recording project of Ōtepoti based Jens Moller who has been quietly releasing music under the moniker since 2015. Combining his love for hissing electronic sounds and the inescapable pipe-dream of being a rockstar, Not Now is a fusion of the jarring and harmonious thoughts you settle on when you are left completely alone in the wee hours of the night.

Not Now was sporadically recorded in Moller’s Ōtepoti home over the past couple of years, and mastered by Nick Graham. The album art is the work of Te Whanganui-a-Tara based artist Ella Harrington Knapton. Algorithmic AI’s have taken her original drawings and created beautifully stressful pieces that speak to the nature of Not Now’s prickly nocturnal construction. that’s all recently appeared on the DarkSpace: A Fundraiser to Help Fill the Void compilation album, created to support local live gig spaces in Ōtautahi. The irony of which you can certainly feel.
