Ambient Matyk – Live In Iowa City 2005
A forthcoming release, likely in August, will be Ambient Matyk – Live In Iowa City 2005. Jon and I played on the Iowa City Ped Mall at the corner of Dubuque St and Washington Ave amongst people, skateboarders, old guys playing chess, and the general public during an early autumn evening. It’s eight tracks, all made live and improvisationally.
1. Birds and Dogs (7:56)
2. Evening Air (6:22)
3. Evening Breeze (9:42)
4. The Lost Walk (7:26)
5. From Here To There (3:19)
6. Open Sesame (1:56)
7. In The Sky (5:51)
8. Washington Cherry (13:54)
Jon Harnish – bass guitar, zoom fx box, bass amp
Mark Rushton – laptop, loops, sony acid pro, bose L1/B1, sony minidisc recorder
It’ll be released for free via Bandcamp first, and then eventually on pay services like iTunes, Napster, etc.
Why have these recordings taken so long to be released? I think at the time we felt that we’d just release them via the podcast since they were recorded outdoors, but now with all these services like Bandcamp where we can just make it a free download album then that’s easy to do. If people feel compelled to buy or use a subscription service to download then we’ll give you that option.
