New Release

[Tony Scharf]

The Chaos, in this case, is figurative.   The original Greek definition for entropy was ‘a turning towards chaos’ and this is an album about entropy more than anything.   The slow winding down of everything into a cold, diffuse scattering of photons and and fields, dancing ever more slowly on to absolute zero (which they can never reach).  

The processes that get us there are, paradoxically, quite orderly.  Time grinds all structures into a fine powder and space blasts it all into emptiness.  That was my muse, this time around. 


About the FX:

As a part of my hearing problem, I perceive spatial FX a bit different than a normal binaural person would.  It’s actually quite difficult to know when ’too much’ is applied and I tend fret about this more than any other factor.  I think it gets better with each release, but I appreciate the constructive criticism.  I have to mix a stereo field by sight which probably an alien sounding concept to someone who takes plotting a sound to a position in a 3 dimensional field without a thought.   Sound, I have learned, is a different experience for me.
