DEKUM SHOW DOCUMENT

Honey, Ashby, and I played this show a two Fridays ago and I made a lit­tle video of it using some footage I took while mix­ing paint for the new, almost com­pleted, BCS Vibe and Recording Booth that I’m build­ing at the BCSHQ. I have been work­ing on this sculpture/room/project for about 2 months or a lit­tle more. It’s been an extremely fun and learned project using mostly free and/or found mate­ri­als. A bit crunk, but very prac­ti­cal. Hope to do a new Orem record in there, some Dash, some orches­tral record­ings and prac­tice ses­sions, sit, lis­ten to noth­ing, vibe out, you know. More once it’s “done”.

Anyway, Honey engi­neered and pro­duced the viola effects for me at this show and Ashby did her thing on vox. Check it out:

Also worth men­tion­ing is that tomor­row at the Worksound Gallery in Portland I am par­tic­i­pat­ing in a col­lab­o­ra­tive large ensem­ble impro­vised show with some 20+ musi­cians. I’m very excited for this one and it should not be missed.

IS HETEROGENEOUS AND MORE

I am pleased to announce the debut of the new DASH! album called Is Heterogeneous. Explore it over at the Prescott Family. Highlights include seven new tracks, a remov­able color sticker-cover paint­ing by David Coyne, and a new album that I believe rep­re­sents my cur­rent live show.

Speaking of which, I might soon be per­form­ing that very show near you dur­ing the next cou­ple of weeks…

DASH! Shows

…on tour with Jared Mees and the Grown Children, we per­formed at the Doug Fir last night and are leav­ing Portland today. Think there will most likely be a few more shows in Idaho but I haven’t con­firmed. Really really stoked for the SLC Pioneer Day show with local ambi­ent trip­pers Stag Hare!!!! Also do what you can to check out the White Fang/White Rainbow/Rob Walmart tour which has already begun…think they’re play­ing at the Smell with Lucky Dragons on Sunday July 20th. I’m going to try to check it out, let me know if you wanna carpool.

Finally, we wrapped up the final day of shoot­ing for the DASH! video for “You Keep Kicking (The Walls You’ve Become)”. The shoot was han­dled well with ease and guid­ance by David and Daniel Nuss. It is going to be pretty epic and I heard last night that they’re already begun to cut the footage (this is slang for edit­ing I’m told). I’m work­ing on putting together a making-of with the footage Tony and I shot. So many peo­ple helped out and I’d like to thank every sin­gle per­son for their con­tri­bu­tions espe­cially Dave Nuss, Dan Nuss, Sam Guerro, and Tony Ortega.…

Which side is the melody on?
And which the bass?
Can you hear when they change?
And when they reverse?
