Fish Beach, Holocene show

Well, what's happened since we last spoke? Well, among other things, OPS did an installation and performance at the Tate Modern! Also, Golden Retriever played about 5 shows and was interviewed on Foxy Digitalis.



I made this cover version of a Michael Nyman song called Fish Beach:

Matt Carlson - Fish Beach

I first heard it in The Cook, The Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover and was really obsessed with it, but it wasn't on the soundtrack. Eventually I found it on the soundtrack for Drowning by Numbers, but the song is only 2 minutes long and I found myself listening to it on repeat a lot and wishing it were much longer. So I went ahead and made my own extended version, using modular synth to arrange Nyman's original instrumental parts for synthesizer ala Wendy Carlos and adding more layers of my own overlapping rhythmelodic lines. I hope you like it.



Also, Golden Retriever is playing Holocene's 7th anniversary birthday party on Friday, June 4th. It's a stellar bill with us, Operative, Miracles Club, and Reporter. Doors at 8 and the show's free so get there early!

Best,

Matt.  ¶ 1:21 PM
