Soul Pilgrimage is a true sonic voyage, navigating the listener through expanses of electronic texture and rhythm, rich and soaring electric guitar tones, insistent melodies, and layered harmonies, while riding waves of analog and digital synthesis and amplified electric guitar. Echoes of Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Ry Cooder, Parliament-Funkadelic, Genesis, Brian Eno, Miles Davis, and countless influences swirl in headphones and lurk in the nooks and crannies of a lush and detailed stereo soundstage.

Recorded on December 4, 2021. Tim and Mike meet in a New York City hotel room -- before a Genesis concert --  to discuss Soul Pilgrimage and whatever else comes to mind. 

[Note 1: A offhand and playful reference to The Monkees emerged near the beginning of the conversation. Six days later, the great Michael Nesmith left this plane of existence. Happy trails to a sweet and wonderful man who lightened our childhoods. Note 2: The length of Genesis' Supper's Ready is 22:54, not 26 minutes -- not sure how that distortion seemed OK to 2 people who know better ; )]

Tim Reynolds &  Michael Sokolowski: Podcast

No, this isn't a Lionel Richie or Adele cover. It's my first piece with a beam, so Hello comes to mind as an apt title, as I'm prompted by Soundcloud to enter one. 

All sounds originated with the beam. The DSI Mopho is used here as an effects pedal -- the oscillators are turned off.

It's an MP3, but recorded in high resolution (96kHz/24-bit). Please contact me if interested in a copy.
