An experiment in symphonic improvisation paired with synthesizer-scapes.
Strings, reeds, synths & hand percussion all blend sweetly into an odd landscape indeed.
The final touch was to bring aboard some singers I have loved over the years.
Im so pleased they were all willing to participate and Im very tickled by the plane we navigate.
Once YoshimiO agreed to be on board I knew we were going to be OK.
Recorded & mixed at my home studio (Stu-Stu-Studio in Los Angeles) and remotely, this one was a slow burn to see the light of day.
And here it is in its final crystal form. Celebrating the spaces between ritual, habit & ceremony. And all the parallels between.
The line is blurred.
This is occult adjacent strain of sound.
At home in daily ritual, contemplation & meditation.
The band is John Dwyer (synths, vocals) Heather Lockie (viola) , Thomas Dolas (synths) Andres Renteria (hand percussion), Brad Caulkins (tenor saxophone) , Kyp Malone (synths) & Archie Carey (bassoon)
The singers are YoshimiO (Boredoms, OOIOO), Albert Wolski (EXEK), Gracie Jackson ( GracieHorse), Ciriza (Artist Extraordinaire), Kyp Malone ( Bent Arcana, TVOTR, Rain Machine etc..), Brigid Dawson (Thee Oh Sees, The Mothers Network), AZITA ( Scissor Girls, Bride of NONO, AZITA)
For fans of Steve Roach, Eno, Syrinx, Howard Shore, Current 93, Terry Riley, Tangerine Dream and a proper sage scrub
