Joshua Abrams and Drag City announced this week that the next Joshua Abrams album will be released on March 27th and be called Music For Pulse Meridian Foliation. They also released visual for a bried three minute section of the larger piece.
This is a piece for two violas, harmonium and electronics – written in dialogue with Lisa Alvarado’s 2023 REDCAT exhibition – sonically considers her matrix of geographic, geologic and personal histories. On its own, the LP ensures that the exhibit’s expansive ambiance persists, via Alvarado’s graphics and the music’s mesmerizing stream of subtle sonics and polarities, spiraling in and out of change and recurrence on multiple planes.
