Prog Duo Days Between Stations Updates on “Being” & “Perpetual Motion Machines (Music for a Film)”

By glassonyonpr

For Immediate Release

Prog Duo Days Between Stations Updates on “Being” & “Perpetual Motion Machines (Music for a Film)”

The Days Between Stations music video collaboration with Durga McBroom is called “Being.” The band and Durga are available for interviews on both video and the new Days Between Stations’ album, “Perpetual Motion Machines (Music for a Film).”

The group’s manager and video producer Erik Nielsen created the video from concept to final editing. “He’s produced all of our music videos,” guitarist Sepand Samzadeh says. “This is our third video shoot with Erik, he has a minimalist approach to matching visuals to the music. He has a great sense of style, creativity, strong leadership qualities, and extensive knowledge of technology.” Erik and his Supposable Productions have worked with the classic rock and prog community for a variety of video productions—such as streaming the ProgStock Festival, video production for Las Vegas’ hit show “Raiding the Rock Vault,” and music videos for many artists—notably Dave Kerzner, Asia Featuring John Payne and hard rock band “Last in Line” on Frontiers Records.

Through the years prog greats including Yes’s Billy Sherwood, Peter Banks, and Rick Wakeman, plus XTC’s Colin Moulding have collaborated with Days Between Stations. Then there’s Durga McBroom, known for her phenomenal musical and theatrical background, including singing for Pink Floyd from 1987-1994, acting and dancing as the character “Heels” in the movie “Flashdance,” and hitting number 1 on the Billboard dance charts and on Top of the Pops with the song “(Can You) Feel the Passion.” Now along with her sister Lorelei, she’s in the Australian Pink Floyd Show and recent starring role in the satire movie, “Sammy-Gate.”

Billy Sherwood produced Durga with keyboardist Oscar Fuentes Bills and Sepand for a song and music video “Witness the End of the World” on the album “Giants,” released in 2020 and voted track of the week by Prog magazine readers.

When it came time to find a singer for “Being,” the only song with lyrics on “Perpetual Motion Machines,” the band knew Durga was a perfect fit. The “Being” music video ( www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6UNQsUpAxs ) makes use of colors, light, and  people!

Erik wanted to first showcase Durga’s amazing stage presence and present the band in a stylized performance setting, “and use some simple visual effects to suggest different aspects of the concept of ‘Being.’”  Oscar based the song’s lyrics around the general concept of existence and trying to interject what artist Jean-Paul Bourdier’s art “inspired us to do, and we let the music speak for itself.” (“Perpetual Motion Machines” initially was intended to be a film soundtrack for a documentary on the artist.)

“Seeds,” the first video ( www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kmLDoapIkg ) in “Perpetual Motion Machines” won track of the week by Prog UK readers. ProgRock.com cites “Being” as one of the best epic songs of 2024.  MusikReviews.de praises everyone’s work, citing Durga closing “the all-round emotionally cinematic and moving album with a quiet song that gives the entire album an unusual (vocal) twist.” Echoes and Dust praises Durga for her “angelic, soulful voice” and makes comparisons throughout the review to a range of classic treats including music by Alan Parsons and David Bowie!

The band sees Durga as a force like a Jedi! Sepand says, “She has so much experience and talent and her confidence just glides in with her energy.  She is a true professional.” One of Sepand’s fondest memories is playing, and when she started singing, “It feels like thunder struck my back. I looked over to Oscar and we telepathically spoke with each other… the message was if we died that day, we were grateful for this moment, we experienced brilliance at its best.”

Likewise, Durga loves collaborating, which allows her to “add my brand of art to that of others, thereby creating something totally new and different. I would urge people to find other artists to collaborate with. You learn a lot, and it can push you out of your comfort zone.” Durga feels much respect for Oscar’s lyric writing, “I learned how to make his vision come alive by making it personal.”

Sepand relates, “When you are surrounded by so much love, talent and creativity everyone elevates you to your new best.

Formed 20 years ago in Los Angeles, Sepand and Oscar named the band after Steve Erickson’s novel “Days Between Stations.” The Pineapple Thief’s Bruce Soord inspired the band to work on their music after he used some of Sepand and Oscar’s musical experiments as the basis for “Saturday” on The Pineapple Thief’s “12 Stories Down” album. The duo continued to work with a range of musicians on what became their first release, “Days Between Stations,” in 2007. Their 2012 recording “In Extremis” was produced by Yes’ Billy Sherwood. In 2020 they released “Giants.”

UK Guitar Legend Gordon Giltrap’s To Release New Album “Starfield” Feb 28, 2025

By glassonyonpr

For Immediate Release

UK Guitar Legend Gordon Giltrap’s To Release New Album “Starfield” Feb 28, 2025

This product is on pre-order and will be released Feb 28th!

Despite facing challenges in the ever-changing music industry, Gordon Giltrap has remained a steadfast figure in the world of acoustic guitar music. His dedication to his craft and his ability to connect with audiences through his music have cemented his status as a beloved and influential artist. In recent years, he has continued to perform, record, and inspire new generations of guitarists. Giltrap’s enduring legacy lies not only in his technical mastery but also in his ability to convey profound emotion and storytelling through his instrument, making him a true icon of British guitar music.

The best person to tell you about Gordons new album, Starfield, is the man himself, here it is track by track

STARFIELD (VOCAL)

I shared a dream about my late wife Hilary with my friend, the poet and song writer Rhona Dickson. She was deeply moved by the story and felt compelled to write some words and a melody line over the top of her favourite Gordon Giltrap tune ‘Starfield.’ On first hearing I knew there was something deep, special and haunting about it. I had been working with the superb Welsh singer songwriter Susy Wall at the time and asked if she would like to add her lovely voice to the track. The end result is what you are hearing now!

THE DODO’S DREAM This version is the work of my friend Paul White. My contribution to the track was to play the acoustic sections, Paul did the rest, adding sonic soundscapes and his soulful blues guitar.

12 TOWERS AT DAWN This track was inspired by the work of the fantasy artist Rodney Matthews and his image ‘12 Towers At Dawn.’ The piece is one of my medieval flavoured tunes that had been around for a while. When my friend, the brilliant Italian progressive rock musician, Alessandro Corvaglia was writing material for his new album, I offered the tune as a gift to be included, he kindly responded in the affirmative and produced this stunning version, which in my opinion, took it to another level, far beyond just solo guitar!

THE FOX AT DAWN My thanks to Mark Guyatt for his keyboard arrangements, capturing the feel of a misty dawn morning, and to Mark and Jane Day for the inspiration behind the piece.

SMALL POCKETS OF JOY I thought it only fitting to include a solo guitar tune for this release. I had Pete Townshend’s ‘Substitute’ in mind as the building block for this tune. STARFIELD (INSTRUMENTAL) Composed 2019 on a budget Fender guitar. The whole thing took 20 minutes to write, but slightly longer to record!

Gordon Giltrap 2025

GORDON HAS GENEROUSLY AGREED TO DONATE ALL HIS ROYALTIES TO THE TEENAGE CANCER TRUST

Trey Gunn’s 7d Media Releases Experimental Guitarist, Composer, and Producer Andre LaFosse Releases “Entry Level: An Introduction to Andre LaFosse” Spanning More Than Twenty Years of His Career

By glassonyonpr

For Immediate Release

Trey Gunn’s 7d Media Releases Experimental Guitarist, Composer, and Producer Andre LaFosse Releases “Entry Level: An Introduction to Andre LaFosse” Spanning More Than Twenty Years of His Career

“When I dreamed up a new collection of experimental guitarists for 7d, Andre was my instant first pick.” – Trey Gunn

7D Media is proud to announce that experimental guitarist, composer, and producer Andre LaFosse is joining our musical family with “Entry Level: An Introduction to Andre LaFosse.” Spanning more than twenty years of his career, this 14 track album brings together remastered classics, remixed favorites, and even offers a sneak peek into the future with an exclusive new track.

Throughout the collection, LaFosse’s distinctive “turntablist guitar” technique takes center stage, showcasing his skill in looping, multitracking, and creative sound manipulation. The title track, “Entry Level,” debuts as an electrifying preview of his upcoming album, “Then Again,” scheduled for release later this year on Trey Gunn’s experimental music label, 7D Media.

Highlights include the energetic “Hard Sci-Fi” (2012), the genre-defying “Interference” (2003), and a re-amped version of “Balancing Act” (2012), along with updated renditions of “Disambiguation,” “IMNSHO,” and “Seismic.”

This compilation serves as the perfect starting point for new listeners while also offering longtime fans a rich archive of LaFosse’s evolving artistry – from early experiments like “Signify” (1999) to more recent explorations such as “Each Planet a Complete Society” (2022). Aligning seamlessly with 7D Media’s mission to spotlight groundbreaking artists, “Entry Level” stands as a testament to LaFosse’s enduring creativity and his significant contributions to the experimental guitar music landscape.

“I first encountered Andre’s musical vision through his release ‘Normalized’ and within two bars I was floored. Finally! Someone had taken guitar-looping into wild new territory. While everyone else was crafting these big, swirling, watery pieces à la Robert Fripp (I’d been wrestling with that myself), Andre completely threw out the rulebook.

His ‘Normalized’ sound was seriously funky stuff – think more Carlos Alomar (Bowie), Adrian Belew, and Fela Kuti’s guitar players. More James Brown swagger than Brian Eno dreamscape.

And his looping technique? Totally ‘wrong’ by convention, and brilliantly so! He was corrupting those guitar loops like a mad scientist: chopping them up, stretching them out, breaking them into tiny blips before expanding them back again. No more of those long, drippy sustaining guitar layers – this was musical fragmentation and reassembly, all while keeping the groove alive.

When I dreamed up a new collection of experimental guitarists for 7d, Andre was my instant first pick. Could we get him involved? Would he make new recordings for us? Yes and yes! Even better – we got his whole back catalog, including (Yes!) ‘Normalized.’” – Trey Gunn

Andy Summers and Robert Fripp “The Complete Recordings 1981 – 1984” 3CD/1Blu-ray & “I Advance Masked” 2024 Mix 200gm vinyl Available March 28th, 2025

By glassonyonpr

For Immediate Release

Andy Summers and Robert Fripp “The Complete Recordings 1981 – 1984” 3CD/1Blu-ray & “I Advance Masked” 2024 Mix 200gm vinyl Available March 28th, 2025

Andy Summers and Robert Fripp “The Complete Recordings 1981 – 1984” 3CD/1 x Blu-ray

• 4-disc set of all the Summers/Fripp material on 3CD/1Blu-ray.
• CDs include the original albums ‘I Advance Masked’, ‘Bewitched’ and a 3rd album ‘Mother Hold the Candle Steady’ compiled from previously unreleased / unheard material newly mixed and assembled by David Singleton plus an alternative take of “Maquillage” and an early slower version of “Parade”
•Blu-ray includes:
Both original albums and the new 3rd album – newly mixed by David Singleton in 5.1 DTS-HD MA surround & 24/96 hi-res stereo
Both original albums – the original stereo mixes, newly mastered in 24/96 hi-res stereo
A ‘fly on the wall’ audio documentary – ‘Can We Record Tony?’ – taken from Robert Fripp’s own archive cassettes of the 2 guitarists’ original improvisations and conversations, also in 24/96 hi-res
• Presented in a 10-panel book-sized digi-sleeve with 16-page booklet including photos & sleeve-notes from new interviews with Andy Summers and Robert Fripp by King Crimson biographer Sid Smith.
• Plus a fascinating ‘Tale of the Tapes’ page by David Singleton on how / where the previously unreleased material was recently discovered / sourced.

“The most exquisite moments in music are when you connect with the other players, when you fly, when you touch the spirit and the audience is there with you.” – Andy Summers, One Train Later

Having crossed paths briefly in the ’60s in Bournemouth where Fripp took over Andy’s guitar chair in the band at Bournemouth’s Majestic Hotel, it wasn’t until 1981 – when Summers wrote to Fripp – that the two guitarists would work together.

With King Crimson fresh from recording the now classic album ‘Discipline’ after a considerable break, Fripp was immediate in his response to Summers’s suggestion of working together. And though The Police were busy with the recording and touring of ‘Ghost in the Machine’, the two guitarists somehow managed to find time to experiment, develop and record the first of their two albums.

Whilst “I Advance Masked” showcased the skill and differing guitar techniques of the two players with heavy influence of Fripp’s multi-rhythmic playing evident, their second 1984 album ‘Bewitched’ was a more melodic affair with the inclusion of additional personnel including bassist Chris Childs and Sara Lee, and as Fripp put it, “the album is a lot more Andrew than it is me”.

Almost 40 years later – during plans to reissue the original albums and searching for the original tapes – Summers came across four new tapes in a Los Angeles vault. Not only was most of the original material on those tapes, but a treasure trove of previously unreleased material, early versions, alternative versions of tracks were unearthed.

From that, eleven unreleased tracks were arranged/edited and newly mixed and, along with an alternative take of “Maquillage” and an early slower version of “Parade”, a third mini album titled ‘Mother Hold the Candle Steady’ was created. More previously unreleased tracks such as Balinese and Brainstorm and delights such as an early mix of New Marimba were also discovered by David Singleton in the process of collating and mixing this collection.

In addition, this package includes an audio documentary titled ‘Can We Record Tony?’ which is from a series of cassettes Fripp kept, containing their original exploratory improvisations.

Andy Summers and Robert Fripp “I Advance Masked” (2024 David Singleton Mix) 200gm vinyl

• 200-gram audiophile vinyl of Andy Summers and Robert Fripp’s 1982 album.
• New 2024 stereo mix by David Singleton
• Cut by Jason Mitchell at Loud Mastering
• Includes 2 previously unreleased tracks ‘Skyline’ and ‘Entropy Pulse’

With a very different sounding 1980s King Crimson lineup on tour and The Police’s status as one of the biggest acts in the world, it’s unsurprising that an album of guitar duets from Summers/Fripp – despite being as far apart from the concept of ‘guitar hero’ playing as possible to imagine, proved intriguing enough to spend several weeks in the US Billboard 200 charts.

On the multitrack tapes for both “I Advance Masked” and “Bewitched”, there were many unfinished tracks. With ‘Skyline’ and ‘Entropy Pulse’, Fripp (on ‘Skyline’) and Summers (on ‘Entropy Pulse’) had played numerous part-complete solos. According to Singleton, this left him “with the wonderful task, now very simple in a digital world, of making a coherent backing and then combining and switching between the various solos to create the “duets” that you now hear”.

Americana-Fusion Ensemble JACK O’ THE CLOCK to Release New Album PORTRAITS on February 13, 2025!

By glassonyonpr

For Immediate Release

Americana-Fusion Ensemble JACK O’ THE CLOCK to Release New Album PORTRAITS on February 13, 2025!

“Jack O’ the Clock just seem to go from strength to strength, one of the most original and compelling groups I know playing some amazing compositions that seem to tread effortlessly between Van Dyke Parks and folk music from an as yet unidentified culture, while making all the things you’ve always thought of as difficult sound as effortless and natural as breathing.” – FRED FRITH

PORTRAITS is “accessible, smart music” (Pascal Bouquillard, Clair et Obscur) by Jack O’ The Clock, “perhaps the foremost modern dark Americana outfit” (Mike Borella, Avant Music News). It is a re-imagining of an album founding members Emily Packard and Damon Waitkus recorded back in the summer of 2003. The album features the original rhythm and violin tracks, bringing new lyrics, vocals, and an array of other overdubs by present band members Kate McLoughlin and Victor Reynolds.

PORTRAITS presents a collection of bite-sized, slice-of-life, mostly first-person portraits of individuals ranging from childhood to old age, bound up in the quietly desperate particulars of their lives. Each voice forges a unique alloy of characteristics, from resistance to resignation, earnestness to irony, but with a consistent undercurrent of humor.

Musically, you might think of these as front porch songs: hooky, energetic, sunny-side-up, reflective, fun, a little casual. Pure play and pleasure. It’s a side of Jack O’ the Clock that has always been present but has never been so concentrated in a single album, and because of the strange decade-spanning way this album came together, could never quite happen again.

“Fronted by the lithe, troubadour vocals of Damon Waitkus and accompanied by lush vocal harmonies, old-timey strings, fingerpicked guitar and shape shifting rhythms, Jack O’ The Clock weave folksy Americana with a fusion 70s rock vibe — think Crosby, Stills & Nash and Pearls Before Swine supported by Weather Report’s rhythm section. Through his balladesque lyrics, Waitkus inhabits a range of characters, exploring the inner monologues and waking dreams of resentful armed white men, dissociated self-impersonators and nocturnal bureaucrats.” -EMILY POTHAST, THE WIRE

“…Through 10 years of recordings, Jack O’ The Clock is now established as a category unto themselves. The music often takes the form of complex, contrapuntal pieces with beautiful interplay between the hammer dulcimer, bassoon, violin, and guitar. The intertwined themes build and meander…On top of this are Waitkus’s poignant vocals, adding to the melancholic atmosphere.

“Listening to Jack O’ The Clock invokes a twisted view of America post World War II – or perhaps projects that view to the rural blight of today. Lyrically, the group does not make a statement in particular. They offer no positions, polemics, nor solutions. Instead, their songs explore dark slices of life, unusual and disturbing happenings involving people both ordinary and strange” – MIKE BORELLA, AVANT MUSIC NEWS

PORTRAITS is available as a 24-bit digital download, limited-run signed CD-R, and streaming on all major platforms.

Held By Trees To Release Second Album “Hinterland” Featuring Talk Talk/Hollis veterans Robbie McIntosh, Laurence Pendrous, Andy Panayi With Simone Marie Butler (Primal Scream, Jesus & Mary Chain), Matt Simms (Wire), Jen Macro (My Bloody Valentine) and Others!

By glassonyonpr

For Immediate Release

Held By Trees To Release Second Album “Hinterland” Featuring Talk Talk/Hollis veterans Robbie McIntosh, Laurence Pendrous, Andy Panayi With Simone Marie Butler (Primal Scream, Jesus & Mary Chain), Matt Simms (Wire), Jen Macro (My Bloody Valentine) and Others!

“Hinterland” is the second LP by Held By Trees, taking in elements of jazz, post-rock, and ambient music and will be released on CD/Vinyl (and digital download only on Bandcamp) on Friday 4th April, 2025 on Tweed Jacket Music Ltd and Lasgo Records Distribution. The follow-up to 2022’s critically acclaimed debut, ‘Solace’, this new eight-piece album is a sonic journey through ambiguous spaces, within and without.

Once again, Held By Trees – helmed by composer/producer David Joseph – brings together living DNA from its chief influence, the latter work of Mark Hollis with Talk Talk, and as a solo artist. This includes this time his son Charlie Hollis who plays piano on four of the tracks. Returning Talk Talk/Hollis veterans are Robbie McIntosh on guitar, Laurence Pendrous on piano, Andy Panayi on flute, clarinet and saxophone (who are each member of the live HBT band), plus Martin Ditcham on drums/percussion and Simon Edwards on double bass.

Other notable contributors to the album include: Rob Coombes (Supergrass) on Hammond Organ, Stephen Gilchrist (Stephen Evens, Graham Coxon) on drums, Simone Marie Butler (Primal Scream, Jesus & Mary Chain) on synths and sound effects, Matt Simms (Wire, It Hugs Back) on guitar, Norman Westberg (Swans) on guitar, Robert Poss (Band of Susans, Phil Niblock) on guitar, Simon Scott (Slowdive) with field recordings, Mark Simnett (Bark Psychosis) on drums and percussion, Jen Macro (My Bloody Valentine, Hurtling, Graham Coxon) on guitar, Chris Pedley (The Baker Brothers) on bass.

David Joseph said, “‘Hinterland’ is a meandering celebration of the vague, the between places, the forgotten, nameless margins – not just in the landscape around us physically, but also internally – somewhere in the middle of faith and doubt, joy and melancholy, departure and arrival.”

“The thrill of Held By Trees is bringing such a variety of musicians together and sculpting something surprising and unique from the ideas they submit. This album is an odyssey of guitar, with some of the most innovative guitarists of the last 50 years of alternative, left-field music taking part. ‘Hinterland’ is full of soundscapes using guitars like paintbrushes, painting a variety of rich, delicate, floating and abrasive textures that evoke the liminal spaces around us and within us.”

In a departure from previous releases, the artwork this time is supplied by Brighton-based abstract mixed-media artist, Gareth Hayward. David said, “Gareth’s artwork is the perfect visual pairing for the music. It asks us what we see within it, without dictating what or where it is. There is plenty of intentional ambiguity, which is central to the album’s musical theme. I adore Gareth’s use of negative-space and his visceral approach to capturing landscapes full of mood and mystery.”
