Evan Bartholomew - Tidal Phases of the Moon 1
Artist: Evan Bartholomew
Title: Tidal Phases of the Moon 1
Label: Hypnos Secret Sounds (CD)
2008.
A fairly recent addition to the roster of releases, but when we heard Evan's latest recording, a sharply resonant and multi-layered set of
repeating loops that develop into a complex and slowly-musical drone structure, we couldn't resist it. We'll have more information and
sound clips from this one soon, and it should be released in February, but here's a glimpse of the cover for now. It will be a bit of a
departure for the Secret Sounds imprint -- by special agreement with the artist, this album will be released on standard pressed CDs,
not CDRs, and the limited edition size will be larger.
Evan Bartholomew is a composer, sound designer, and a pianist. He is best-known for his records released under the name Bluetech,
and a new tech-house album under the name Evan Marc. He reserves the name "Evan Bartholomew" for his deeper, long form, and more
cinematic musical expression.
Recently he founded the Somnia label to release artistic ambient & minimalist
recordings, his own and those of other artists, and Caverns of Time was his debut release, in 2007, under the Evan Bartholomew
name.
Tidal Phases of the Moon 1, coming soon on Hypnos Secret Sounds, will be his first connection to the Hypnos label, and Evan
will also have a track included in the Message from a Subatomic World compilation early in 2008.
