Twelve Tails by Proem
In 2020, I began streaming on twitch in an attempt to return to the basics ( before computers, sound cards, and midi sync existed as a mainstay). A small feedback based modular system, some guitar pedals, a couple of contact mics and a floor to put them on for a few hours. Things escalated quickly.
While these sessions were about the practice rather than the product of music making, I found that I had begun to quietly siphon off pieces that were not "STREAM HIGHLIGHT" worthy, yet still sonically interesting. It's as if the spirits I had summoned, picked these twelve excerpts up from the cutting room floor, edited them down and gave them a little mastering... against my will.
You can catch a much less subdued noise floor session live three nights a week at: https://www.twitch.tv/proem__
Thank you for showing up and letting me borrow your ears and minds for a bit for the last year. It's been a blast.
