Bublin' in The Rain

Another single from my 2017 release "I'm A Very Good Listenr". I'm still championing this as the not-yet-official theme song of the California Tortilla™ Mexican food franchise. This song was made in their now closed Pikesville location on my phone using the program Caustic.

This remaster will hopefully convince the chain to finally use this anthem as their official jingle to be played over the in-store soundsystem ad-nauseam 🎶

HEXASEX vol. 1 by SHADOWBAND - Performance Demo

Odyssey (demo)

Premiered at the Kitchen in New York city in 1971, this recording was made by Phill Niblock at his Experimental Intermedia Foundation on December 16th, 1988. The performers were Yoshimasa Wada and myself.  The occasion was the 15th Anniversary Celebration of the Experimental Intermedia Foundation.

The recording was released on The Table of the Elements Records (TOE 073) in 2006.  I believe that it is now out of print, so I’m posting the piece in its entirety on SoundCloud. The duration of the piece is about an hour.

Here are the somewhat hyperbolic record notes, written by TOTE founder Jeff Hunt:

“The hour-long Two Gongs fills the entirety of this disc with its ethereal, droning psychedelia. While written in 1971, the '89 recording documented here features Chatham, along with fellow composer Yoshimase Wada coaxing heavy, overlapping tones out of a pair of Chinese gongs. The instruments buzz and hum, moving in waves from deafening rattles to soft, muted drones. The monstrous noise that Chatham concocts is far more akin to the seismic crashes of monstrously distorted guitar feedback than that of two unprocessed slabs of metal, and it proves the composer's interest in creating a similar world of sound out of whatever instrument currently proved his muse. On disc, the performance is jaw-droppingly powerful, a monumental chunk of glorious noise.”
