Drive West Today (Joshua Santospirito)

from a gig in 2008 in Brisbane in West End out the back of the Forest Cafe in a garage - AUDIOPOLLEN - home of the brave ... I have no idea who recorded this ... possible Joel Stern ... but I'm not sure.

I borrowed the guitar of Marl Karx to play this ... it was dead ... red ...

Drive West Today has been expanding over 2011 and 2012 to encompass more than just the cinematic experience of listening to sound. Joshua Santospirito’s guitar is more and more placed into textural compositions that contrast silence to clicks and bursts of sonar.

The recordings in the Acousmatic Ecology series are a document of one moment in a long slow exploration of stops and starts and counterintuition. All aimed at creating stillness within a maelstrom of anxiety and the elevation of the soul in the midst of confusion, attempting to take the listener into the performing experience.

Part 1 of the two-part series are selected pieces from a recording session in May in Hobart at the Scrapbook Studios. Part 2 will be out in late 2012 and will feature selected recordings that focus more on improvisational concepts within repetition.

Also from 2004's the Balloon, Merri is named after the inner Melbourne creek that runs through Northcote and Fitzroy where I used to live. I had also been listening to a lot of melancholic Spanish guitar themes at the time of writing this particular piece.
