Sunbeam of No Illusion - the first album John Thayer and I are releasing as a duo - is out right now via AKP Recordings. You should listen:

Ben Seretan & John Thayer Sunbeam of No Illusion

The most serene Fender Rhodes fantasies, hyperreal accretions of signal noise and maj7 chords, wind in the trees and hiss in the tape, the wobble of tape lossy digital loops as the Earth turns through the seasons.

morning all ~

change in programming this week at MBB because we’re just a couple of days out from the arrival of SUNBEAM OF NO ILLUSION, the first LP from my serene instrumental duo with John Thayer. The whole album comes out Friday via AKP Recordings (who are really releasing some amazing stuff lately).

however! today we’ll be hosting a first listen of the album on Bandcamp - - you can hear the whole thing a couple of days early and we’ll be in the chat taking Qs and trying to remember how we made particular sounds. join us here at 7pm EST ~
