October finish by Only vernal pools

October finish was recorded in two sessions. In what year we can't remember. We do remember: multiple pawn store practice amps were arranged in a circle like a 10w stonehenge. Sounds were improvised. Birds and chimes weaved around tremeloed strings, cell phones played into prayer bowls, amps buzzed. Strands of sound crossed each other, like eddies in a pool, like a river over stones, like beach wind around sandstone. The resulting pieces were cut into segments, randomly layered and ever so slightly nudged to produce an electroacoustic stratum, a co-incident genre-less psychedelic drift and bloom. The spectral expansion of Taj Mahal Travellers, the glacial crawl of AMM, the ecstatic voids of the VHF records stable blowing like slow ghosts from tiny amplifiers and falling to spread across each other like leaves from a tree. – Andrew, 10/31/20
