Interviews and More Records

Last month, I made my debut as an interviewer for Make Weird Music, interviewing artists I’ve collaborated with about their new records. Many thanks to Anthony Garone for allowing this to happen!

First, I interviewed my good friend and collaborator Sacha Mullin:

The interview was mostly about his new record, ‘Casino Wilderness Period‘, which I contributed to in several ways. Give it a listen below:

Next, I interviewed Ben Spees of The Mercury Tree:

I sang on the title track of their new record, ‘Self Similar‘, which is a microtonal album, mostly in 17EDO. You can stream it in my previous post.

I also sang on the opening song of Travis Orbin’s new record, ‘Silly String III‘, in addition to engineering Sophia Uddin’s violin parts, Sacha Mullin’s vocal spot, and a piano VST:

I played piano on the closing song of Cheer-Accident’s new album, ‘Q-Pop‘:

That song also features Sophia Uddin, who wrote its main idea.

We were also involved in another CHEER-ACCIDENT record which releases on February 23rd – an easy listening record entitled ‘Vacate‘, engineered by Steve Albini. My sole contribution was the magic organ chord on ‘Postmarked’. You can pre-order it below:
