Mingonation!

We are thrilled to announce the release of Earth Music, our first full-length album. We couldn’t be happier to be partnering with the dopest label in the land Irrelevant Music to bring our album to you at long last. Earth Music will be available digitally on August 21 and on cassette August 25.

This album wouldn’t exist without Ed Rawls and Justin Mckneight at The Living Room with whom we had the great pleasure of recording these tracks. The album was mixed from start to finish by the polymathic Mason Brown aka Beast Supreme, who wasn’t content to simply play multiple instruments on the album and serve as our in-house producer. We also worked with the incomparable Jason NeSmith to master the album. Last but not least — the album art was designed by the very talented Philip Spradley.

An extra big thank you to the organizations that have supported us over the years: The EARL, Ladyfest Atlanta, The Mammal Gallery, Adult Swim, Go Bar, Deer Bear Wolf, Creative Loafing Atlanta, Immersive Atlanta, 529 and lots more folks we’ve probably forgotten.

Thank you.

ROAM for the Holidaze 7: Gyrosonic Projections for Past Worlds and Future Times

Happy Nearly New Year, ROAMers! As the new year approaches we come closer to the threshold that divides us from Then and Now. It is a time where we look back to preserve just as we look forward to divest.    The two-faced Janus looks both forward and backward, blessed with a double-vision that allows for seeing into the future and the past at the same time. Here at ROAM, we believe that sound recording and manipulation allow sound scientists to create new hybrid soundforms that are capable of replicating the Janus’s peculiar visual enhancement but for the ears instead of the eyes. In this seventh installment of our ROAM for the Holidaze compilation we unveil the fruits of some of the greatest examples of this type of soundform cultivation. Listening both forward and backward as present memories give way to future nostalgias, our contributors share intimate moments, fantasies, nightmares, and the joys of making a racket. Won’t you lend us your ears for the latest in this sonically satisfying holiday tradition? HUGE THANKS to our collaborators (in the order they appear): Todd Fink. Derek Pressnall, Dave Hughes, Sam Martin, Dereck Higgins, Jordan Noel, Madeline Adams, Beije, Magicicada, Cole Alexander & Zumi Rosow, Katie Robertson, Clyde Petersen, Zopi Kristjanson, Wil Wright, & Longmont Potion Castle. Headphones required. [Champagne bottle pop SFX] Formed in 2009, ROAM is an experimental podcast series that features themed found sound collages gathered from artists across the world. Listen to last year’s compilation. ROAM is for your ears to see
