Dimensions by Candle

TL:DR or TL:DL? I hope you will at least experiænce this music…

These are amongst the longest songs I have ever recorded. In fact, the Sixth Movement is definitely the longest song I have ever recorded. So please be prepared to spend a lot of time experiæncing these tracks.

These were all recorded live-to-tape, improvisations that simply built upon feelings as I performed - all captured live with no overdubs in post. These songs were all performed & recorded during the 2021 edition of the 50/90 Song Writting Challenge.

This album owes a lot of its existence to the late, great DZD. Deez was a dear friend who unfortunately passed onward in December of 2022. He was always pushing me to explore my use of sound, & these tracks were no different. He encouraged me to continue to create these epic Space Rock songs, pushing me to release them as an album. That album has sat unreleased for two years. Yet since the passing of DZD, I knew I needed to finally release this project. I had to send this music out into the world for Deez's sake. He would have wanted this. And I'm certain he is in some other Dimension right now, with a big smile on his face, getting lost in this experiænce right now. Thank you Deez, for all that you did to inspire & challenge me. I miss you, man.

See You In The Shadows…
