Into Darkness ( ProgRockDan1 & AndAWan  )

Horror Music cue. Tension building solo piano instrumental cue with aggressive melody and dark, amorphous harmonies. 

I woke up after a shocking nightmare and this is little fracture is what I kept in my mind after that. This piece emerged out of that nightmare.

Nightmare

Spirits dancing on the shores of deliverance? Epic sky battle of good vs. evil? Sumerian sacrifice? Fiery testimony of the wrongfully accused? Harnessing the wind for the voyage of a lifetime?

Eggs And Grits - Preview from Stars Are Far

Убаюканные смертью засыпают города и травы, судьи и жертвы, хранящие верность, изменники, ждущие своего часа. Там вдали видения ведут свой нескончаемый танец на пепелище надежд и страхов, несбывшихся дней и изолганных вечеров. Сумерки тысячелетий еще не отступили, мы ждем их конца. Так мы точно узнаем, что дальше пути нет.

Lullaby

IT TAKES 3 TO TANGO 
A tango is all about moving smoothly as one with your partner. Orion Tango's tango is all about doing the same thing between minds and instruments. The newest project from Philadelphia's genre-defying 1k Recordings label consists of guitarist Tim Motzer, bassist Barry Meehan and drummer Jeremy Carlstedt: a team of premier musicians who've played together in various settings in the past, but never in this trio configuration before. Their self-titled debut shows both the familiarity of longtime collaborators and the eagerness of a fresh outfit just discovering what it can do. 

Drawing on the experimental spirit of Krautrock as much as the deep rhythmic stew of urban dub, offering infectious power-rock grooves and occasional noise on the edge of chaos, Orion Tango is a thick slice of heavy power-trio improv as this crew does it best. It's a treat for familiar 1k listeners who love the forward-thinking eclecticism of Base3 or Global Illage, newcomers looking for one of the most exciting under-the-radar discoveries of the season, or just anyone with adventurous ears. Catch them onstage this fall and be ready for anything. ~Geno Thackera

An interview with Orion Tango on WKCR-fm in New York.

Orion Tango, WKCR Interview 8:4:2017

Taken from a sprawling live 3 hour solo guitar concert with 9 screens of visuals in Crescent Park in the Summer of 2012 part of the Commotion Festival Philadelphia. I was blessed to do a 3 hour live soundtrack in the open air. It was quite a beautiful day, and remains a lovely memory. Happy to have this music still.
