Cascade Excerpt

Artist: William Basinski 
Title: The Deluge (The Denouement)
Album: The Deluge
Release Date: August 7, 2015

Pre-Order LP: http://shop.temporaryresidence.com/trr258

Cascade and The Deluge are variations on the latest tape-loop and delay composition from the inimitable William Basinski. Cascade is the CD/Digital variant, and The Deluge is the deluxe 180 gram white vinyl LP companion. In Cascade, a single ancient lilting piano tape loop repeats endlessly carrying one along in its tessellating current. In The Deluge, the same loop is processed through a series of feedback loops of different lengths, creating a spiraling crescendo of overtones that eventually fades away to silence. In the denouement, a series of limpid piano loops leads to an urgent orchestral theme that builds and gradually dies.

Timing Is Everything

The forest was silent, stripped of life and colour, branches like bones under a sky that rotted inward. He walked the dead path without hesitation — there was nowhere left to run, and no one left to warn.

Above, the heavens writhed. Stars flickered like dying coals, and a cracked moon pulsed behind a veil of shifting ash. The tearing had begun, just as he once believed he could command — back when he mistook forbidden sigils for wisdom instead of invitation.

The cabin stood ahead, windows glowing with ritual fire, its shapes crawling along the walls like living wounds. The same symbols he'd carved in his youth, the same whispers he’d followed in arrogance, believing knowledge was salvation, not a summons.

Leaves lifted around him, pulled upward into the sky’s wound. A hum rolled through the earth, through his bones, through the memory of every choice that brought him here.

He did not slow. Doors, once opened, demand attendance.

As the world bowed to the unseen thing waking beyond the veil, he breathed his final acceptance, soft and sure — the only truth that ever mattered.

The Void Remembers.

None may be better suited to crafting eulogies than William Basinski. The composer who graced us with the melancholy masterpiece Disintegration Loops now turns his gaze to David Bowie. Today marks the one year anniversary of Bowie's passing and so we humbly premiere Basinski's tribute 'For David Robert Jones.' This hymn for the music hero will be released January 20th on Temporary Residence Ltd. Keep your ears on RBMA Radio because Los Angeles resident Basinski will soon appear as a guest on Frosty's weekly LAndscape program.
