The Living lucid




Well, my first release came out last year, September 21st, if I remember correctly.

" If you want to witness, in a single sitting, the budding and decay of a flower, or perhaps someone driving from Los Angeles to New York City, check out the art of time-lapse photography. If you want to listen to a composer who can successfully and coherently develop a single track through a multitude of concise musical themes, look no further than Lapse. The Living Lucid is not exactly what you’d expect from an IDM artist. Straying from pop sensibilities, the ten cuts on this release have deeper bows to improvising jazz artists of the mid-20th century than to the more immediate predecessors of techno and glitch. Strong polyrhythmic layers permeate the electronic beats while the guitar-driven melodies wander freely from one idea to the next in a stream-of-consciousness bliss. Listen to segmented motifs here and head on over to shopnuevaforma.com for your unabridged version. "

I think things have been doing good with it. Have had sales and such. I've been getting a bit of feedback from people who have purchased it as well, it's all been positive so far. It's exciting. I'm already thinking of another release.

I have some other projects in the works. I believe I will begin working with a local Chicago hip-hop musician, the GTW. That'll be some nice change. Some fresh air.

Aside from that I've also been commissioned to do some soundtrack work for a Flash based game that will be coming out within the next few months, if all goes well. I've finished up a couple of tracks and more to come with that. Potentially going to do some sound effects as well. Not sure how that will go, I'll give it a whirl though. It's been fun though.

More updates later. Some other pending projects and other individuals interested in collaborations and soundtrack work. None of it set in stone for the time.

Be well, readers. It's murky out there.
