Lead track from “El Tecolote Sings Songs to the Night.” This EP is a brief but intense aural snapshot of the artist’s pandemically altered electric violin life—looped, layered, effect-ed, intimate, unadorned. Cover art Diane Benavides Rios.  Available exclusively here: https://davidstrother.bandcamp.com/releases

Right-out-of-the-box quickie experimental track featuring new Digitech RP360 XP, which just arrived via my friends at www.electricviolinshop.com.  These are preset sounds without any tweaking at all using the built in looping feature.  Violin is my sensational NS Design CR-5.  Meowing during the end fade courtesy of my cat Orbit, not included in the new purchase. www.dstroviolin.com

"Both Ray and Strother sound like generous artists. This explains, at least partially, the “good vibes” feeling that permeates the entirety of Space Yard...The musicians soar and daydream...it's music that for it's large part smiles in beatitude, where technical bravura is still at the service of innocence." - Massimo Ricci, Italy
