One more from Archives and some New Work

Hi again all.

So here's a couple more with exclusive new artworks from yours truly.

Drone Studies for Unmanned Theremin is the newbie. My wonderful wife bought me a Moog Theremini for my birthday back in January (feels like another aeon) and I did some strange experiments with the bastard which has resulted in the 2 lengthy ultra-minimalist electronic works on here. The cover is a painting "Lightning Whale" by me. I do paint as well as scrawl on post-it notes and I do it simply for the joy of it...but hell why not start using them for covers. The next few releases will feature my artwork.




The artwork on the archival release unleashed as well, is titled "Untitled Improvisation I" inspired in name only by one of my favourite artists Wasily Kandinsky. The music itself, titled "Works For Guitar Vol 1" (yes there'll be more volumes mark my words!) are solo electric guitar recordings I made in my flat in Highgate Hill back in 2011 or 2012. Hope you enjoy.




I hope you enjoy these ones along with all the others. I'm working on another release featuring recent and archival recordings combined which I shall hit you all over the head with, with more of my artwork as the cover. Then I'll get to doing some new paintings and recording some new pieces...probably in one of the many fair fields around here since I'm cooped up in my tiny flat with the wife and many neighbours all in the same boat. Look forward to sending you some brownsnake (Brisbane River) side fiddle tunes and cider-drenched apocalyptic ballads soon.

Keep safe and healthy everyone, wash your bloody hands and try and stay away from eachother, and I appreciate your continued support in this incredibly fucked up time.
Love upon all,
Adam

More from the Archives

Yes I'm well aware the title of this one is very unfortunate for the times. IT WAS RECORDED OVER A DECADE AGO. Indeed the title of the title track probably dates back to the 90s I think. Anyway. Obviously what I MEAN by the title is "transmissions" as in radio transmissions (fuck I love Radioactivity by Kraftwerk!) and "traveller" as in a "gypsy"...when you listen, the influence from traveller music is self-evident I think...as it is throughout much of my oeuvre.

AND this one:



And old classick full of Brisvegas weirdo luminaries.

ENJOY and please stay safe & healthy me comrades,
Adam

New Release & a bit of News

Well...some better news then, since the last 2 posts have been about canceling gigs. I'm trawling through the archives and have decided to keep the flame burning by annoying you with plenty of digital releases. I'd been sitting on a few in the hope of doing some nice CDr etc releases in the coming months. But since I now have no work (music is my living and the gigs are dropping like flies) and any plans of tours I was working on (Europe would've been nice again) are dashed for now...I'm fast-tracking some releases and digging up all sorts of weird and wonderful things from the archives and I shall share them with you all sporadically over the coming months. 

I hope it brings you some solace if you're trapped at home in quarantine, worried, concerned, working from home, wandering empty streets, sitting in a hospital, whatever it may be, I hope that these sounds offer something for you. As I'm more or less out of work, anyone who has the income too please do consider buying a download or going nuts on any musician or artists works you admire. Our "sector" is getting well and truly smashed by our microscopic new friend. Anyway enough of that. 

Here it is! http://adamcadell.bandcamp.com/album/street-music-vol-2 Street Music Vol 2. The long awaited sequel to Street Music Vol 1 (which is avail also at my bandcamp as a download). Street Music Vol 2 was all recorded on rooftops in Senegal while I was hanging out there in 2015 for a few months. Beautiful country. Like Street Music Vol 1 this is a series of intimate, introspective solo violin improvisations with the instrument heavily muted in order to allow the sounds of the street below to spill into the sonics. My trusty The Scrapes comrade Ryan Potter took these dusty field recordings, mixed them and mastered them as best he could to clean them up for you. I hope you enjoy. A bonus bit (other than my spectacularly cackhanded Paint 3D-conjured art) is an essay I wrote about my experiences in Senegal...a bit academic and boring...but hey if you're stuck in a flat eating tins of tomatoes and drinking fruity lexia for a few weeks it might prove enlightening. And I will do CDr versions with handmade art and all sorts of joys when the time is right...it's definitely not right now I think we all agree. 

Take care everyone! 
Adam.
