All Night Flight Records proudly presents Even The Dog Knows, a mesmerizing collection of home recordings by South London duo Jemima, marking the seventh release on the label's carefully curated roster. This haunting vinyl release transforms domestic spaces into portals for spectral folk music that recalls the intimate experimentalism of Brannten Schnüre and the lo-fi mysticism of early Grouper. Even The Dog Knows emerges from a world of found sounds and fragmented memories, where wobbly loops of unidentified documentary speech blend seamlessly with lapping waves of folk guitar created at the very edges of the player's ability. These are songs born in back bedrooms overlooking railway lines, where Jemima has spent recent years summoning ghosts through their recording software, crafting a sonic séance that connects listeners to spirits from West Yorkshire, Glasgow, Dunedin, and the suburban Midwest.

The album's atmospheric power lies in its ability to conjure specific spaces and memories through sound alone. Each track evokes the feeling of rising from squats and university accommodation, from damp rooms filled with old paperbacks, stale hash smoke, and abandoned mugs of tea. The duo's approach to recording transforms these mundane domestic details into the raw material for something transcendent, creating music that feels like it has been excavated from the collective unconscious of alternative culture.

Central to the album's haunting appeal is Jemima's use of unconventional instrumentation and vocal approaches. A haunted melodica weaves through the compositions like a specter, while mumbled vocals reinvent the singer's uncertainties as a deliciously glum pose that recalls the most introspective moments of bedroom recording's golden age. These elements layer together to create a sound that is both fragile and deeply atmospheric. The duo's compositional approach draws from the experimental tape traditions of the 1960s while maintaining a distinctly contemporary bedroom recording aesthetic. Their work represents a perfect synthesis of lo-fi folk traditions and modern home recording techniques, and Miles Whittaker's mastering preserves the intimate, fragile quality of these home recordings while ensuring they translate effectively to vinyl. The album artwork, created by Jemima themselves, provides the perfect visual complement to the music's homemade aesthetic.
