Holodeck's newest roster addition is Austin based experimental synth artist Curved Light aka Peter Tran. Peter's beautiful compositions are made on all analog hardware and range from gorgeously orchestrated to harsh and abstract. Mr. Tran's newest cassette Channelview is out today.
Channelview is the latest in a prolific stream of releases from Curved Light. Peter is able to breathe life into circuits by forming his music out of fundamentally basic sound waves. Using this method, Tran has the ability to fully customize every song element and let his underlying concepts vividly unfold with poetic grace. The unique shape and color of each tone on songs like “Resincast“ and “Goldleaf” dictate the course of rhythm and melody. In this way, Curved Light regards sound design as the essential component of writing music.
