Metavari - Soft Continuum (Book + Download)
Sold Out
'Soft Continuum' is the 10th anniversary edition of 2009's 'Be One of Us and Hear No Noise.' This is an exercise in rediscovery; a 26-minute reinterpretation of the original recordings. Minimally composed, but proudly featuring every member who has ever been involved in the project.
Amidst the insanity of life and Ty Brinneman's (founding member, bassist) diagnosis with pleural mesothelioma, he and Nathaniel David Utesch were able to write more than half of the record together for the first time since 2015. Experimentation in the recording process utilizes MIDI Bass software to perform hardware synthesizers in real time in addition to typical bass guitar tracking.
Physical format is a perfect bound, 48 page book containing the original Rapa Nui photographs from ‘Be One of Us,’ experimental photography by Anni Roenkae and Amber Lamoreaux for ‘Soft Continuum,’ and liner notes comparing the 2009 vs. 2019 records. Includes download code from Bandcamp. Sold at cost and in limited edition. Ships January 2020.
This record is for Ty Brinneman. "Despite distance and season."
