about

The potential for disorientation is enormous, as the sensation of the air throbbing (whether in the room or in the ear) overwhelms the sense of stable pitch. The microtonal tuning here is no melodic affect but, rather, an exercise in a scientific phenomenon. Through the course of Wave Songs the pitches of the sine tones move ever closer together, seemingly hemming the singer in until she changes the rules of the game.

Mastered for headphone listening in surround-sound binaural format.

I love the sound world of these works by Eden Lonsdale, and have listened this album constantly since it came out one month ago. Anatomy of Joy is my favorite track. I hope to hear more from this composer. Eric Sather
