New album from This Line: Elysium

“A conception of the afterlife that developed over time, located on the western edge of the Earth by the stream of Okeanos. Maintained by some Greek religious and philosophical sects and cults. Initially separate from the realm of Hades, admission was reserved for mortals related to the gods; later expanded to those chosen by the gods - righteous, heroic, blessed to death.”

This Line has now been around for a while and continues to shift and evolve within the organic/mechanical landscape of their musical escapades. We're proud to release this most recent endeavor, which shifts closer to a classical - elongated palette of thought, then they have ever ventured, but also inches closer to an idea of living with sound than they have ever achieved.

A certain rumination of an idea, something you climb down into and find yourself rebirthed from after the fact. Rather than compress thoughts into more segmented musical moments, this is one long composition, broken up into two parts. Think of it like the musical approach of Dunkirk for the ambient in us all.

You can stream and download the album on Bandcamp and be sure to check out their other releases!

#PM15

If you follow our social media accounts you'll know we are spending this weekend amongst audio greats at Podcast Movement. First time visiting this particular conference, and already excited for the next one. Yes, they have it set.

This kicks off a couple busy weeks as we are continuing to put out The White Whale every Sunday, have some work for other shows in the mix and are playing participant to the 24-hour Radio Race from KCRW next weekend. Yes, we have asked ourselves what we are doing. Too fun to take that reality check. 

If you are new to our podcast as of #PM15 please take a listen in whatever order you please. First season is chronological, but as conversation of the records and films speaks to listening and watching in whatever order you please we have designed each episode to be part of a larger whole that can be heard unto itself.

Cheers to all following and participating in this crazy business. We are having fun. If looking for us tonight we will probably be mixing some radio somewhere in the ether. Feel free to steal attention. 

Event Horizons

If you follow us on Twitter, Facebook, or Google+ you know we are very busy. Anxious Machine's second season has started and our remix for ARRVLS is in the airwaves. We also had a big hand in the recent episode of SisterStory Presents: with Jo Piazza. A lot of music and producing went into making that happen. 

There is also a lot coming down the road including a new music video for Scott Wooldridge as well as some others. The White Whale is kicking strong and growing a larger fan base everyday - but that is closer to its season end rather than beginning. We are going to fill that space with some different one- off radio docs as we prepare the second season. That is going to be a pretty different narrative, but built upon similar foundations. 

This post specifically though is about a new mixtape American Residue Records is dropping tomorrow. Called Event Horizons, if you have heard any of the recent podcast episodes we have been a part of then you have heard some pieces.  These have quickly gained some listeners so time to release.

follow our channels for all the updates and look for the new record tomorrow! 

The Satin Cowboy (also known as Silas Hite)

We've had a good friend in Silas Hite for a while now. Appreciator of the work (both visually and musically); we've been going back and forth with ideas, ways of being, what in the world can we make of all this material put out in the world.

Recently, in conversation, something new came about. Silas uses the handle Satin Cowboy for various social media handles, but it was unknown that this was more than a handle. It's also a band name - a presence. Beyond his impressive experience scoring film, television, and video games he's released records. Check out his Bandcamp page for a bit of what we're talking.

And, as luck would have it, there's more. He was working on it yesterday - along with some super secret, hush hush, material. So, keep your eyes and ears open. You never know where he might pop up.
