Dissolve by Repeated Measures
This album was an accident, it really shouldn't exist, and yet here it is. During my last few months living in Japan in 2016, my computer and my phone both broke. I was offline and unplugged, plus I lost many of the tracks I had been working on since landing in Japan, anything that was unreleased and unfinished. That work was really impossible to re-create so I just embraced the loss and kept going, really had no other choice. It was either that or have a fukin breakdown, so I just embraced it, the loss, being off the grid, and spent even more time outside in nature before saying bye to Japan. During those last two months out there I made a bunch of guitar and minilogue loops on the SP404sx. I ended up with a pretty maxed out SD card, some samples from it ended up evolving into tracks featured on the self-titled LP. "Dissolve" is just the raw card recorded live in stereo straight off the SP, the original way it was played before getting processed in Ableton.
The weirdest part to me is when I first set out on this album quest I thought I'd call it "Dissolve," I was pretty set on that as Collapse's sequel. I had been thinking about transience a lot at the time too following the Collapse album. That LP ended up being self-titled, after getting completely lost. These recordings made in the void of that, in the embrace of that loss, THIS is "Dissolve."
Enjoy the view,
