Honey, Ashby, and I played this show a two Fridays ago and I made a little video of it using some footage I took while mixing paint for the new, almost completed, BCS Vibe and Recording Booth that I'm building at the BCSHQ. I have been working on this sculpture/room/project for about 2 months or a little more. It's been an extremely fun and learned project using mostly free and/or found materials. A bit crunk, but very practical. Hope to do a new Orem record in there, some Dash, some orchestral recordings and practice sessions, sit, listen to nothing, vibe out, you know. More once it's "done".
Anyway, Honey engineered and produced the viola effects for me at this show and Ashby did her thing on vox. Check it out:

Also worth mentioning is that tomorrow at the Worksound Gallery in Portland I am participating in a collaborative large ensemble improvised show with some 20+ musicians. I'm very excited for this one and it should not be missed.
I am pleased to announce the debut of the new DASH! album called Is Heterogeneous. Explore it over at the Prescott Family. Highlights include seven new tracks, a removable color sticker-cover painting by David Coyne, and a new album that I believe represents my current live show.
Speaking of which, I might soon be performing that very show near you during the next couple of weeks...
...on tour with Jared Mees and the Grown Children, we performed at the Doug Fir last night and are leaving Portland today. Think there will most likely be a few more shows in Idaho but I haven't confirmed. Really really stoked for the SLC Pioneer Day show with local ambient trippers Stag Hare!!!! Also do what you can to check out the White Fang/White Rainbow/Rob Walmart tour which has already begun...think they're playing at the Smell with Lucky Dragons on Sunday July 20th. I'm going to try to check it out, let me know if you wanna carpool.
Finally, we wrapped up the final day of shooting for the DASH! video for "You Keep Kicking (The Walls You've Become)". The shoot was handled well with ease and guidance by David and Daniel Nuss. It is going to be pretty epic and I heard last night that they're already begun to cut the footage (this is slang for editing I'm told). I'm working on putting together a making-of with the footage Tony and I shot. So many people helped out and I'd like to thank every single person for their contributions especially Dave Nuss, Dan Nuss, Sam Guerro, and Tony Ortega....

(Not recommended for computer speakers, headphones okay, better yet is a stereo setup sitting five or more feet back)
Which side is the melody on?
And which the bass?
Can you hear when they change?
And when they reverse?
Visual explanatory answer.
