onewayness news (September 2016): Mirrors to the Bonfire, fall tour...
View this email in your browser (|ARCHIVE|) Hi guys, it’s me.
The seasons are changing, so it must be time again for me to tell you about another new release and another tour.
NEW RELEASES! Mirrors to the Bonfire, the latest collaboration from the critically acclaimed duo of onewayness (Adam Holquist/Erie, PA) and dRachEmUsiK (Charles Shriner/Indianapolis, IN), replaces the exuberance and emotional optimism of their last full-length, 2014’s Immeasurable, with emotional ambiguity and complexity, swapping comfort and joy for unsettling, but ultimately rewarding, drama and melancholy.
Mirrors to the Bonfire is a series of meditations on human feedback and the powers of interpersonal interaction. The three long tracks sculpt a polished narrative of conflict and resolution that cycles in and out of warm nostalgia and dark, uncharted territory. Dark analog drones and electroacoustic concrète clatter give way to extended melodic duo explorations for acoustic guitar & electronic wind instrument. Charles (dRachEmUsiK) & I have a brand new album called Mirrors to the Bonfire. You can read about it above, and check it out HERE (https://onewayness.bandcamp.com/album/mirrors-to-the-bonfire) . We’re really pleased with it. A definite continuation of our previous efforts, but also a departure in some ways I think. We found some new ways of working that created some really lovely results. We’re looking forward to people hearing it, and looking forward to getting out and playing some of this music.
The Hypogeum album I mentioned last time still isn’t officially “out” via Ethereal Live (http://ethereallive.bandcamp.com) , mainly due to them currently being based in the outback of Western Australia with limited internet access. But I’ve got physical copies (and the other guys do too), which look super cool. I’ll have them at all upcoming shows, so come get one. Or if you can’t make it out, holla atcha boy and we’ll work something out.
BUT WAIT! THERE’S MORE.
Literally as I’m typing this, Charles has just released Tacopocalypse, a set of live improvisations we played with Aaron Urbanski and Jason Breitigan back in 2012 on the last night at bela dubby, a great Cleveland bar / cafe / noise venue, which closed the next day to become a taco joint. Dig it HERE (http://mcsdnetlabel.com/album/tacopocalypse) . It’s actually the first time Charles & I ever played together, and also about a block away from the venue where we’ll play on Tuesday. Which segues us nicely into…
TOUR DATES!
Once again this year, I’ll be hitting the road for some dates surrounding the electro-music festival (http://event.electro-music.com/) in upstate New York. This time, I’m going to be joined by both Charles Shriner (dRachEmUsiK (http://www.charlesshriner.com) ) and Jez Creek (Modulator ESP (http://www.modulator-esp.co.uk) ). Charles & I are doing a couple duo dates leading up to electro-music, and Jez has one solo date later on in the run. But for the remainder of the shows, we’re going to play in continuously varying solo/duo/trio configurations. And we’ve got several epic radio sets happening as well, so even if you’re not in the area, do try to tune in.
