oVertone
When it comes to online marketing, the ladies behind cult brand oVertone are a shining example of living the lifestyle while effectively communicating the brand. For many online presences, the larger the following amassed, the harder the struggle to maintain authenticity. Some argue that social media presences both personal and professional are contrived to a fault. Yet Maegen Scarlett and Liora Dudar’s foray into beauty is a testament to the power authenticity really has when it comes to branding in the digital world. Sensing a void in the hair care market, the duo created a line of color depositing conditioners to keep fantasy hair colors vibrant. To date, searching the hashtag #oVertone returns over 14,000 results, with related hashtags like #mermaidhair and #fairyhair. DIY culture is firmly imprinted in their brand DNA, and how could it not be considering the nature of their products? There’s an infectious energy to their hustle and take on the modern woman. Their brand fills a niche ever expanding as more and more people look to express their individuality. interview by Reem Jazar photographer Saryn Christina hair stylist Brianna Dunning makeup artist Fanny Gavin models Liora Dudar & Maegan Scarlett

Marsheaux Whether it’s originals, covers, or remixes, Marsheaux has found success with them all. Auxiliary talks with the Greek synthpop duo about all their arts, their upcoming album Ath.Lon, the possibility of a North American tour, and splitting time between Athens and London. interview by Dylan Madeley meaning achievement. Do you feel things really came together to make this the pinnacle of the Marsheaux sound? M : Yes, Ath.Lon brings to mind the greek word “Athlos”. We believe that it’s a real achievement that we have reached this point. We only had our enthusiasm as a motivation. Nothing else. We had the ability to write really catchy pop vocal lines, but we had to learn how to mess with the synths, the drum machines and the tape recorders. Of course we are not ungrateful as all these years Nick and George (aka Fotonovela) helped us a lot producing our albums and guiding us in a good way. Come to think about how Marsheaux started and where they are today, one would say it’s an achievement.
Marsheaux has made a name for themselves not just by covering songs, but covering a whole album: their 2015 redo of Depeche Mode’s underrated A Broken Frame. It was not their first successful outing, and it will not be their last. The duo’s career spans twelve years, five studio albums, and commercially successful remixes of Depeche Mode, Moby, Client, Kylie Minogue, Gwen Stefani and Katy Perry. They were available to talk about the new album Ath.Lon, the single “Safe Tonight”, and the things you can learn from a great collaboration. First, I would like to congratulate you on twelve years of musical success, and heading for a lucky thirteen. When you first embarked on this musical endeavor named Marsheaux, did you have any feeling that the project would enjoy the magnitude of success it has enjoyed? Was it more like a project you started out of fun and love, and just continued to see where it would go? Marsheaux : Thank you very much. Indeed it was a project that started for fun and we never expected in our first steps that it would turn out the way it did. We never expected all this success. It was all very new to us, but now we enjoy it and have the same excitement as day one.
I’ve also read that the name Ath.Lon was derived from the first syllables of the two cities, Athens and London, which served as the background for the album. Are there songs on the album that in your mind are more Athens than London or vice versa? Are there songs that are inspired equally by both places? Or are there different aspects within the music that reflect each city? M : When Ath.Lon was done, we had 24 tracks ready. We never had so many songs ready for an album. All the previous times we had four or five extra tracks for Bsides or exclusives, but this time we had fourteen more. So, creatively we think the distance worked well. On the other hand, by November 15, we had already worked six tracks for the album.
What are some of the lyrical themes you explore on your upcoming album, Ath.Lon? Is there an overarching lyrical journey throughout the all songs or is each song a story of its own? M : Our lyrical themes are basically the same. Our inspiration is our every day life. “The world we live in and life in general,” as someone very dear says. Although this time, things were a bit different as we needed to work separately from different locations (Athens and London). Οur daily routine has changed completely and this is reflected in Ath.Lon.
“Safe Tonight” is the first single off Ath.Lon. What was the inspiration for this song? What do the lyrics mean to you? M : Actually, the lyrics for “Safe Tonight” were originally written for an another track of the album. They were inspired by the darkest track that now is called “The Beginning Of The End”. The melody and the feeling of that song had something threatening and dark that we felt that there was a need for safety and calmness. So we

Iszoloscope Quite a number in the industrial scene speak highly of Iszoloscope maestro Yann Faussurier. He is a bit of an industrial noise nomad, wandering amongst three different countries whilst splitting his talent among four different and distinct musical projects. Despite this, he has seen a slow but consistent breakthrough with his latest, long awaited Iszoloscope album, False Vacuum. With a new Memmaker album named Let There Be Lasers out as well, Faussurier, currently based in Amsterdam, took some time to share with us his thoughts on his music, but in typical irreverent Yann Faussurier humor, the conversation quickly turned from industrial noise music to Disney princesses. interview by Hangedman You have a very positive reputation in the music scene as referenced by the jokes and humor that seem to follow you at festivals and with friends. I’ve often felt that this does not come out in your music, which remains dramatic, serious, even tortured. What part of your personality are we not seeing that goes into your music? AUXILIARY spring 2016
Yann Faussurier : Glad you asked, I put a shit ton of ghosts in my music with a software called Reaktor by Native Instruments. These ghosts are super hilarious but also sound very, very spooky. That way, I can maintain tone and stylistic consistency without compromising with jokes or annoying the many people that wouldn’t get it. So really, what happens is that, as a listener, you get all of my 20

Freezepop Freezepop formed in 1999, right at the dawn of Napster, poised to rise at the start of the music industry’s slow motion collapse. Auxiliary caught up with Liz Enthusiasm of the beloved synthpop band to chat about crowd funding the new album through Kickstarter, the unbalanced benefit situation of the current music streaming regime, and how the rise of nerd culture impacted their success. interview by Jennifer Link Kieffer You’re currently running a Kickstarter self-funding campaign to finance the making of your new album. You have self-released past albums and released past albums with record labels, why did you decide to crowd fund this album? Liz Enthusiasm : Kickstarter was kind of ideal for us because we get the good parts of being DIY and having a label, without the big drawbacks. We don’t have to lose control, and we don’t have to take on massive amounts of debt. And there’s more of a sense of community there too, since our fans are participating directly in the project’s outcome.
LE : No, that was just a one-off. [smiles]
Can you share any details about your new album? Do you have ideas for an album theme, song subjects, artwork, the overall sound of the album, new musical directions, any teasers? LE : We have a bunch of in-progress demos. Lyrically sort of weird so far? Musically, Sean is teasing, “Cameo plus YMO plus Thomas Dolby,” kind of run through the Freezepop-machine.
Does it make you sad or angry that most talented artists can’t make a fulltime living with their talents and skills? Do you think it indicates something is wrong with modern society or do you think it’s just the way the world is going? LE : It mostly makes me worried, at this rate we’re going to lose a lot of great future music because people can’t have a sustained career. Unless you’re lucky enough to be independently wealthy, or from a country that prioritizes supporting the arts, it’s just next-to-impossible to make it work. Even if you can do it parttime while working a day job (which is our general situation) it just makes it a lot
Did you have fun writing “Human Money”? Do you think it’s the Freezepop song with the most social commentary since “Bike Thief”? LE : Ha, it’s funny, I didn’t even really think about the social commentary until you mentioned it! (But I mean, duh, it’s totally obvious.) It was fun to write. Or cathartic, anyway. We generally steer clear of the social commentary unless it’s wrapped in a thick layer of humor, I guess.

SØLVE Brant Showers, of the grave wave duo ∆AIMON, talks about The Negative, his first full-length solo album as SØLVE. Showers discusses how the solo format allows him to explore the layers of himself that he is uncomfortable with, his plans to incorporate ritualistic and occult elements into his live performance at the upcoming dark electronic music festival Terminus, the industrial music scene, and new ∆AIMON material. You just released your first full-length album as SØLVE, The Negative, how does it feel to have a full album out in the world? Brant Showers : It feels great to finally get it out. This album was a lot of work and involved some serious in-depth introspection. I’m also a perfectionist and spent an unduly amount of energy getting everything right. At least I can say that I’m very pleased with how it all turned out though, and so far the response from everyone has been extremely supportive and favorable. The Negative took on an important role for me as a form of expression, so the anxiety of releasing it became a lot higher than I’ve experienced with other projects. Still, it has been really amazing to hear from friends and fans that have expressed a strong sense of connection to it. That’s been the most rewarding and significant experience I’ve taken away from the release so far.
Do you feel you can create more personal music with SØLVE? Since you are working solo without your wife Nancy Showers, the other half of ∆AIMON? BS : In some ways yes, but in others no. ∆AIMON is still very personal work for both of us, but as interpreted through the lens of our relationship and the dynamic energy shared between us. We’ve always sought to present ourselves honestly, and that demands a certain level of understanding. SØLVE is very much the same in that respect, but there are certain layers and personal issues that I think we guard out of necessity. The darker parts of ourselves that can only be approached and made vulnerable when completely alone. Those are the fundamental aspects of myself that The Negative aims to expose and address. So in that way, it definitely made a difference working solo on it. The Negative is described as a means to express concepts of self-reflection and as an exercise in breaking down to rebuild, did working on the album change you? What did you learn from making it? BS : Going into the album, I knew that I wanted the process to reach into layers of myself that I was uncomfortable with. The main goal was to gain some level of acceptance with those traits through understanding and realization of the negative bias we attribute to antisocial and transgressive interests through their social repercussions. As a society, we have built an inherent amount of guilt surrounding our subconscious desires and fixations. Ever since I was very young, I have had thoughts and interests that are considered contrary to social norms. I’m sure a lot of people within our counter-culture can relate… unpacking and breaking down
How did working on The Negative differ from working on music as ∆AIMON? BS : The most obvious difference was not having another person’s input and guidance. Nancy (my wife and partner in ∆AIMON) has always been a balancing force in our creative process. Working alone can lead to a bit of a downward spiral, so to speak, and as a result I think the album reflects more involved aspects of myself that aren’t necessarily as present around others. It’s an isolating experience, but one that allows for a very singular and insightful perspective into one’s own pathology. The benefit was that it allowed me the opportunity to work at my own pace, and fully explore the meaning behind the deeper emotions and traits that make up the theme of the album.

Ask Arden how can I keep up with the younger people I date?
Q : How does an older, more mature guy keep up with younger, attractive, Energizer bunny type women when our priorities and life experiences are so different? A : First, drink a lot of Red Bull. Then, ask yourself if this is really the kind of lifestyle you want.

meetup? A social media marketing class? There, you might find a young attractive woman who is also over the club scene and wants to spend her time a bit more elegantly, perhaps with a gentleman like yourself who has his act together instead of another coked-up club boy her age. You might not have the same life experiences, but at least she’ll want to listen and share. Or, you might meet a woman who is closer to your age but whom you find yourself surprisingly physically attracted to. But either of those kinds of women are going to want to be appreciated for their maturity and intelligence and life experience as well as their beauty and vigor. They’re not going to want to date a man who thinks that the most attractive kind of woman is a young Energizer club bunny. So get them out of your system now, and then you’ll be able to truly appreciate the right woman for the right reasons.
What strikes me about your question is that you put the word “attractive” in direct opposition with your own priorities and life experiences. At some point, after you’ve had so much Red Bull, your heart is palpitating, and you know more names of DJs than you ever thought you would, that word “attractive” is going to want to sit on the other side of that sentence with “priorities and life experiences”, rather than with words like “younger” and “bunny”.
when should I introduce one of my lovers to the others? Q : I’m polyamorous. When is the best time to introduce one of your lovers to the other?
But you have to get sick of it first. That’s okay, you’re just in the phase where you need to wear yourself out on the thing you want that’s not working for you. Maybe you’re almost at the finishing point anyway, and that’s why you’re writing to me.
A : I would start talking about your other lovers as early as the first date. Being poly, you probably already date somewhat within your community, so chances are that many of your dates will come with a built-in understanding of your relationship orientation, but there’s rarely such thing as too much transparency.
So I say, burn that shit right through. Let it wear you out. Let it fuck with your sleep. Date all the 22-year-olds you can get your paws on, until you are completely confident in your ability to attract and be with younger women, the kind that you find attractive. And then, when the dust settles, you’ll look around and realize that maybe what you find attractive has evolved. Maybe you’ll realize that what’s now attractive is what’s sustainable. Sustainable isn’t a word we think of as terribly sexy, but let me tell you, at some point, knowing that your relationship is a stable situation that is going to support you and foster your and your partner’s personal growth becomes pretty damn hot.
It will help if you can talk your lovers up to each other in a way that not only gets them curious and excited about meeting each other but is also flattering to them as individuals. If you tell one of your partners how great this new person you’re seeing is without placing any emphasis on how great your partner is, you might spark jealousy. But include a compliment and it diffuses: “I can’t wait for [new person I’m seeing] to meet you, s/he’s going to love how smart you are about [shared common interest].”
There are a lot of serious and ambitious 22-year-olds. There are also a lot of 32-year-olds and 42-year-olds who have a lot of energy and who look ten years younger than they are. The point is not so much in the age range of the people you date, but rather in the qualities you’re seeking. It’s okay to have a physical type, but if you’re prioritizing that above all else, you’re probably going to end up having different preferences for how you spend your time together.
In my experience, the best places to meet are low-pressure social environments like a party or social event, where your new lovers can meet without the pressure of sitting down to dinner and making conversation the whole time. For bonus points, choose a fun event like a LARP or laser tag or volleyball, where there’s something else to focus on than just each other.
I’m guessing you meet a lot of these women when they’re already out in Energizer bunny-like environments, loud clubs and bars where such bunnies go to frolic. Maybe that’s the issue. Maybe in order to find a woman who can hang with your more mature self, you’ll want to start going places where the vibe is a little more chill. How about a happy hour wine tasting? A game of D&D? A philosophy
As for when to meet, that’s entirely up to you, your lovers, and the pace of your relationships with them. Be as transparent with them about each other as possible, and then tell them you’d love for them to meet each other because they’re all important to you. When they seem on board about it too, go for it. 37

New Orleans based designer Amanda deLeon’s pieces pair beautifully. Each separate piece makes a statement on its own while complementing the other pieces. That authentic sense of harmonic push and pull is one of the main sensibilities behind deLeon’s design inspiration. DeLeon talks with Auxiliary and shares that she had a hard time growing up different in the South, yet it is that very landscape that inspires and plays muse to her design process. She is also conscious of her community, giving back through her designs and finding ways to further the conversation between belonging and not belonging through her artistic endeavors.

They are easily mixed and matched, or I can just throw on one of my outerwear pieces with my jeans and T-shirt and look like I give a shit. I don’t usually fuss with much jewelry… maybe a statement piece, but that’s about it. It’s not that I don’t like accessories, because I have a pretty extensive vintage hat collection, I just feel that my brain can’t handle the extra thought or time it takes for one more step in dressing myself. I think that is why I create clothing that easily stands on its own. You put it on, it takes no extra effort in “making an outfit”, and you look like you give a shit. So, I would say my personal style is a little bit of Johnny Cash, and maybe a little
Who are your muses or personal style icons? AD : My personal style… my closet lies at both ends of the spectrum, with a few middle ground pieces tucked in.
