\"\"Composer, electronic musician, and violinist Matt McBane<\/a> has announced the release of a new album. Entitled Buoy<\/em>, it follows his widely acclaimed Bathymetry<\/em>, released in 2022, and is both his first electronic album and first solo album. A record of patterns and ambience for synthesizers and violin that sees him play an array of analog synthesizers (modular and fixed), violin, piano and bass guitar, Buoy<\/em> sprouted from a 2020 performance at Brooklyn’s National Sawdust curated by Laurie Anderson and Arto Lindsay. While Buoy<\/em> reveals a new facet of McBane’s work, it expands the foundation laid by his previous music, “the patterns and processes of classical minimalism, the sonic manipulation of electronic music, the elemental qualities of fiddle music, emotional nuance, cinematic space, counterpoint, atmosphere”, as the press release describes, “all filtered through the voltages of his synthesizers.”<\/p>\n

We’ll have to wait until February 28th for Buoy<\/em> to be out through Gradient Music but we can already hear the immersively gorgeous and engrossing ‘Eleven Eleven’, which serves as a perfect introduction to the album.
