Mindspring Music presents: Deviceful - Gradient Drift [MSM142]

This EP represents Deviceful's journey in exploring new ways to express the depths of sound and to tell stories through music. As the tracks unfolded, it became clear that music holds color, and color holds music; the two join as an evolving, gradient landscape of vision, imagination, and technology, connected to our lives—a true Gradient Drift.

A special mention goes to track 2, Construct Dust. Several years ago, Ott visited Don Brown, aka Deviceful, at his studio.while he was in town (they had been in touch for years, and it was great to finally have a proper visit for a few days). After experimenting with some gated chords, DBX compressors, Ott’s incredible bass line, and some backing percussion, a groove emerged. It was just a short construct, though, and ultimately ended up in the hard drive dustbin. Ott believed it deserved to become a full track, so here it is—even if “soon” turned into years. His original bass line is still in the intro, and the final creation stays true to it.
