Arc of the Hunter - Cosmic Music From A Faraway Place

1/4/2023

Arc of the Hunter - Cosmic Music From A Faraway Place

Released January 4, 2023

Cosmic Music From A Faraway Place is a collection of meditations created using Korg M1, Korg MS-20 and Roland TB-303 as a focal point, with the exception of The Cosmic Ghost Finds Bernard Edwards Golden Right Hand or Music From A Faraway Place which was created in 2017, and TS is unsure of how it was made, and has little recollection of actually making it. Finding this lost track from the past inspired "the vibe" of what was to come.

Timothy Steinman - digital synthesizers, analog synthesizers, wavetable synthesizers, sampler, drum machine, effects, production, time travel, album cover

All tracks were recorded in The Space Castle, Chicago, 2022. Except The Cosmic Ghosts Finds Bernard Edwards Golden Right Hand or Music From a Faraway Place, which was most likely recorded in 2017 at The Cloud Dungeon?

Halloween 2022 Arc of the Hunter Renfield release

10/31/2022

Halloween 2022 Monolithos Records release:

Arc of the Hunter recorded Renfield during the LOFI Dracula sessions in 2017. Renfield was recorded early in the process, and was an important step in creating the album. However, it never really fit into the sequence properly, so it was shelved at the time.

Renfield has not been previously released to the public until Halloween 2022.

III - Arp synthesizer, drum programming, effects, production, artwork

Recorded in Chicago, February, 2017. Issued for release on Monolithos Records, Halloween, 2022.
