CD/DVD Releases: A Special Update On Dirk Serries' Expanding Universe Of Microphonics...
Dirk Serries - Microphonics VI (180grm one-sided LP, Tonefloat): A last minute invitation to perform at the Whatbar #4 blog event in the Hague resulted in an impromptu drone piece extending Dirk Serries' microphonics concept into more epic and harmonic territory. Significantly less straightforward than the music on his debut album, the twenty-two minutes of Microphonics VI are built upon subtle shifts and intricate thematic ideas. Listening back to the recording, captured straight to tape by Olivier Nijs during the event, Tonefloat and Dirk Serries decided to release the performance in its pure state and as a snapshot of this singular moment in time? offering a promising glimpse of future volumes in this ongoing series of guitar resonances.
Microphonics VI will be published on may 23, as a one-sided album. Pressed in a limited edition of one hundred copies each on gold, silver and white vinyl.
Now available for pre-order at www.crazy-diamond.nl/tonefloat/html/store.htm
