Nineteen YearsA work of Sonic Multiplicities performed by Garrett Semmelink on violin.DownloadsOPUS FLAC MP3 The American is a single-issue voter: their vote goes to whomever will promise to never speak about the US's endless wars in the Middle East and Africa ever again. Artistic Statement Despite the hundreds of thousands of innocent children who have died at the hands of US foreign policy over the past nineteen years, my fellow citizens feel it much more urgent and necessary to agonize over the yearly death toll of less than ten non-white individuals in 2019 at the hands of our domestic police. It is rather shameful that we, as a nation, would prioritize what is happening to a few of our own citizenry, instead of the massive clusterfuck of death, misery, and violence that we spread overseas. Not one of the cultural, spiritual, or political leaders responsible for facilitating 2020's tensions in the US have mentioned the starving and cholera-stricken kids of Yemen, nor the ailing peoples of Afghanistan. They refuse to read about how the OPCW falsified reports to force Obama to strike targets in Syria. We remain in the country to this day, giving aid and even fighting alongside Al Qaeda with the goal of overthrowing the Assad government. Even those protesting against no-knock raids seem doomed to misunderstand the full breadth of the situation. These SWAT raids bear a striking resemblance to the kind of coordinated shakedowns of Iraqi citizens performed by the US military throughout that country's occupation. It's almost as if our tragic foreign policy leads to similar kinds of destruction here at home. This piece of music is intended to awaken the anti-war spirit of the American citizenry. I trust that my fellow Americans are not cruel, awful, or vicious people - they are just carelessly, tragically, and ruthlessly uninformed. I hope, for our collective sake, that we do not remain this way for much longer. But for each year we do remain at war, a new movement will be composed & performed, then added to the end of this work. We will catalog the history of this horrific oppression, enabled by the brain-dead American demos.

Garrett Semmelink: Violin.Downloads: FLAC & OPUSOn rainy summer nights, I seem destined to traverse the deepest caverns of my mind - particularly in the early morning hours. The thing I keep visually referencing in my mind is: gold trim.The kind of trim that fits so elegantly upon the creaky walls, paneled with wondrous arts - its volume, though, a veil upon the specific beauty of each individual piece. The kind of trim that elegantly drips down from the corners where the ceilings meet the walls, and into the porous lavishness of wooden furniture hailing from 18th-century Europe.Whenever the sensibilities of the people who owned such extravagances was put to the test, it is certain that these proto-revolutionary victims found themselves situated among the trim. And I just wonder whether any of them thanked their lucky stars, that their last glimpses of life would likely be the sight of this golden trim, all covered by the blood running down their eyes as they drift peaceably beyond consciousness and into deep, indefinite rest.

Introducing this feed, Andrew Grathwohl ruminates upon the artistic meaning behind the Sonic Multiplicities platform, and why it is so unfit for today's traditional distribution workflows. If you want to know why a serious composer and many serious musicians are all about releasing music via a podcast feed, give this brief narrative overture a gander. Never heard of Sonic Multiplicities before and want to know what the hell we're talking about?

SolfataraA work of Sonic Multiplicities performed by Garrett Semmelink on violin.DownloadsOPUS FLAC MP3Artistic Statement Every time we pick our instruments up and dawn the self-conceit required to musically emphasize our ideals, we open a crater inside of ourselves, from which we allow concepts to escape into the physical universe. Though that opening may bubble and emit toxicity from time to time, for the musical mind those occurrences are the cost of doing business in the sonic universe. Too infrequently, however, we fail to consider how dangerous it would be to enter into this crater from the other side - a notion often considered when the thirst for musical prowess builds. Tragically, when we finally build up the courage to chart the inner depths of our musical mind, we are too frequently saddened to realize that there is not as much complexity as we would have hoped. Even so, there's plenty of magma and death that awaits the mental-musical journeyman. We are eager for our improvement to arrive, because our instruments enable us to experience immediate feedback. But when we step back from our conceits and meditate on the ideas of sonic multiplicity, we discover the internal prowess of our mental mysteries. The journey is what our music expresses, not its end result. It's a good thing, too; the silence of death makes for some dreadful music.
