The Jeremy Bible & Jason Henry album 'Vryashn' is out now and available from the fantastic record label Gears of Sand. Alternatively you can get details/samples from cdbaby.
This two track opus is a truly epic immersion into the vast imaginations of Bible and Henry. The confident, effortless development of broken piano treatment at Vryashn's epicenter bring to mind the sublime energy of Harold Budd and Brian Eno. The unique talents of the constantly evolving Bible and Henry are on full display with Vryashn. For one, the well honed laptopist duo turn here to piano as their main medium.
While the warmth, spacious piano movements of ambient pioneers Harold Budd and Brian Eno is often drawn upon for inspiration by other artists, few are able to use the instrument in ways heard on Vryashn.
Rather than sparse notes played between silences, Bible and Henry use the piano as a launching pad into a sprawling world of minimal piano motifs that build tension and release given a depth through subtle laptop treatments.
Vryashn is arguably a definitive statement of Bible and Henry's talents as composers on the cutting edge of an overflowing and arguably oversampled electronic scene.
Beyond synthetic 'soundscapes' or 'interesting textures' Vryashn coalesces into an extraordinarily epic journey.
Unfolding over two movements clocking in at just over 50 minutes, the work's addictive minimalist motifs pull the listener in only to be washed over--often unexpectedly--by subtle sonorities of breathy fibrillations, pulsing machinery, and radiant drones that intrigue but never serve to take Vryashn off its massive, radiant course. In a word, breathtaking."
The Jeremy Bible & Jason Henry album 'Glare' is available from restingbell.net. This release is a free download as a gift from us to you. Glare is a huge piece of modern contemporary music. 5 tracks, about 60 minutes duration.From the first track, you can almost grab the intense and exciting spirit, being inherent in these pieces. Dark and gloomy melodies meet abstract glitches, lost radio frequencies, mysterious field recordings and other interferences. With all these ingredients, Jeremy and Jason create warm, nostalgic, and at times frightening scenery. It smells like old basements, dusty treasure chests, old physical instruments and yellowed pictures from your grandmother's photo album. The duo's growing catalog of "sound paintings", each creating a new experience, will see release through a growing list of labels including Resting Bell, Gruenrekorder, Abgurd, Gears of Sand, and their own imprint, Experimedia.

Productive and eclectic Ohio based sound artists Jeremy Bible & Jason Henry collaborate to fuse elements of musique concrete, acoustic, and electronic music. By means of conceptual, experimental, modern, and algorithmic recording and processing techniques the duo seek to expose a synergetic relationship between real world found sounds, acoustic instrumentation, and electronic sound design. The end result has been described as "paintings of sound", "the aural equivalent of abstract expressionist and minimalist painting", "music with depth and soft command", and "a consolidation of sound that creates an intimate experience transporting the listener to newly fabricated yet oddly nostalgic destinations". By merging the aesthetics of art and science through modern recording technology the duo examine the relationships between sound, ourselves, and the environment. Through research and experimentation into bioacoustics and the utilization of field recordings alongside traditional instruments and sound design a re-contextualization of everyday sound occurs. The duo's creative amalgamation of these elements have caught the attention of recording labels in Russia, Germany, and the United States with a growing number of albums slated for international release. Each of the duo's improvisational live performances bring forth new perspectives on their sound and are complemented by an equally significant visual element of large scale projections in a lights out performance environment described as "subtle patterns of breathing white light".
Three years in the making, Jeremy Bible's most recent effort guides the listener through a seamless and diverse spectrum of deeply processed electronic, acoustic, and found sounds. Dissonant atmospheres are complimented by layered field recordings with touches of electro/hip-hop/industrial influenced beats and bass throughout. This album takes the listener through feelings of melancholy and distance and is best experienced seamlessly beginning to end.
"One of the few recording artists with a halfway interesting name, Bible isn't afraid to leave a few sawtoothed edges and rough surfaces on what is otherwise a smooth and translucent sound." - The Wire
"With Myspace and other sites littered with Ae clones, only the most dedicated fan can separate the wheat from the chaff and find that rare musician that builds on Incunabula instead of mimeographs it. Jeremy Bible is one of those rare musicians. I love it." - Igloomag.com
"A largely atmospheric effort -- one that straddles the line between Vangelis's Blade Runner soundtrack, and Brian Eno's minimalistic approach to electronic music." - Cool Cleveland Newsletter
"After commencing with tangled clusters of wiry synth exhalations in "Oscarkestra," the scenery and its corresponding moods change dramatically throughout. On the uptempo tip, "Grestwrd" pursues a storming electro-dub fusion, while hip-hop beats update the IDM-styled electronics that curdle and writhe throughout "Echo11." On the quieter front, ruminative flute tones give "Celosia" a willowy ambiance, stuttering voice fragments bob to the surface during the brooding "Strand," and seagulls and children's voices revive memories of a long-ago beach visit during the meditative "Diffuse." I Am Very Uncomfortable Most of the Time's meditative zone is capped by "Insoma," a subdued ambient drone dominated by crystalline organ washes, after which the closing tracks jolt the album back to attention. While extended tones drape themselves across "Pendulum," beats stumble and tumble, anticipating the album's seventeen-minute closer "Gravel" where spastic convulsions suggest unattended machinery gone awry. As such, it's here that Jeremy Bible's sound gravitates towards Confield-era Autechre—a good or bad thing, depending on how you feel about that divisive set. At day's end, I Am Very Uncomfortable Most of the Time is inarguably well-crafted and its sequencing works well too." - Textura
From the ..Punk music 4 aliens.. album, released this month: The alien Garen sat with Jet by a small fire in a desert canyon of an unknown world next to the wreck of the ship. Garen was talking of how his culture studied humanity.
“We saw in a distant probable time line that began in 1969CSol, sound manipulation began it’s massive transformation by artists putting reflective or magnetic dust particle devices in front of your sound boxes for simple imagery decoration until the technology grew into handling instruments that healed the internal organs of the sound manipulator by 1988CSol using lights as silent sound within the music …As you say…party or raves in old earth terms, your alternative history may have said therapeutic or nirvana dance music if only we had been allowed to share with your race this concept in those times. But those human histories exist only for the mature minds to observe, our culture studies the multi-verse as our strongest cultural identity, so we are proud to know your humanity then, now and the alternative humanities you do not know of. Most aliens who bother about sound manipulation are always working with dimensional sonic vibrations, not sound. Which makes the concept of listening to alien music a very impossible art for the human ear to enjoy? But we do find your cyber music very refreshing and love dancing to your cute two dimensional sounds, because you earthlings have got so such rhythm man!!!” Garen croaked a smile and Jet stared deeply at him, looking disappointed with his attitude…… You want to know more?
