Richard Reed Parry of Arcade Fire fame has released a solo album called Quiet River of Dust. Fire up your ears.
In November, at a special residency at Satosphère, (Societe des Arts Technologiques) in Montreal, where audiences lie flat on their backs in a dome, staring at 360 degree video (shot by Richard), and the band plays live, Laurie Brown worked with Richard on a piece of sonic strangeness to open the show. (You’ll hear that collaboration the end of Richard’s album)
So while in Montreal, Laurie sat in Richard’s kitchen and talked about music and creativity and hot baths. So in this episode of Pondercast, we have plenty to chew on.
The experience of listening to Quiet River of Dust is otherworldly, so clear some time and give it both ears. Then head here to buy it.
