Dubiety was the first tune to be recorded during the first lockdown of 2020. I set up a studio in my spare room, using a Tascam 24 track recorder and set up to record all instruments myself, as i had no internet connection to send tracks to fellow musicians. This piece has some parts still to add, but here is a mix of progress so far.

Dubiety

back to a style I'm comfortable with: volume Pedal and big reverb. The theme for this one is the difficulties of love and wanting to change things to the way they were.

ギ・ギはテキサスを拠点に活動するDJ／アーティストで、伝統的なサンプリングと実験的なサウンド・コラージュを融合させている。彼の作品は有機的なものと合成的なものの架け橋となり、クラブのリズムやテクスチャーの探求からインスピレーションを得て、没入感のあるシェイプシフトするコンポジションを生み出している。

I know it's been a while. Hope you are all well. I composed these days a loose jazz ballad. Not quite common for me, but made a lot of fun. The rhythm section (bass & drums)is programmed. Hope you enjoy.... 
Have a nice summer wherever you are.

Our next release sees the return of both Jazzdefector and Slow Clinic, who contributed albums to our catalog in 2016 and 2018 respectively. The pair have been connected via social media for quite some time but when James Armstrong (Slow Clinic) had posted about a stint of writer’s block, Sebastian Buccheri (Jazzdefector) messaged to suggest a collaboration.
James agreed and set about creating the sort of paired-back material which started this journey, with his debut for Somehow Recordings; a guitar, a volume pedal, octaver and an endless feedback delay. This was passed over to Sebastian who added his signature guitar sound to add new layers of improvised melody to James’ drones.

The collaboration that became ‘Green Echo’ drew out a combined strength between two artists who had reached a plateau in their creativity at that point. In their mutual brick walls they found that the blocks were removed through the creation of Green Echo. The bouncing back and sharing of ideas, or echoes if you prefer, translated into something greener, as hope and optimism took hold. The album itself has also become a collection of memories which reflect this positive experience created in winter and for Sebastian in particular, he recalls the fading green landscapes of the midlands, UK countryside in which he lives.

Dawn Chorus and the Infallible Sea: "Liberamente" out on Azure Vista Records on October 16! Available on CD/LP/download. Preorder from azurevistarecords.bandcamp.com

Info:

"Second album from American trio Dawn Chorus and the Infallible Sea, consisting of zakè, Marc Ertel and Damien Duque. Together they're creating soft-textured and slowly unfolding sonic landscapes, somewhere between guitar-oriented drone music and modern classical. Liberamente is the kind of album that demands attention and patience from the listener, yet it's ultimately a very rewarding one. 

Stylistically Dawn Chorus and the Infallible Sea sums up several decades of American soundscape and drone music, taking threads from Windy & Carl, Auburn Lull, and Stars of the Lid then weaves them into a contemporary, and sonically adventurous whole. On the surface it suggests simplicity, but dig deeper and the seven pieces on Liberamente reveals a rare compositional dexterity. This is minimalism at its finest."

Dawn Chorus and the Infallible Sea: "Liberamente"

I play the guitar  which is recorded and processed using an old G5 mac with Ableton, Logic, some hardware, and some guitar pedals.
Sometimes I use soft synths and sound samples.
