Very happy to say that next in the quiet details series is the immeasurably talented and deep-thinking Philadelphia-based artist, Andrew Tasselmyer.

Originally from Baltimore, Andrew has forged a unique and distinct creative path, focusing on highly textural and reimagined sounds - releasing on labels such as Laaps, Seil Records, Eilean Recs, Constellation Tatsu, Home Normal, and others, and collaborations as a member of Hotel Neon, Gray Acres, and Mordançage.

With Signal, Andrew has crafted an album of stunning beauty and entrancing character - taking his innate musicality and, as only he can, drawing the most hypnotic shapes to completely immerse the listener.

Wonderfully dynamic, the album takes us across all manner of imagined sound-worlds - from the beginning of vast sub-bass drones and field recordings eliciting a vision of where this may have begun to take shape - to the gradual introduction of sweeping pad-like harmonies - to powerful walls of sound and beyond.

The album continues on, perfectly sequenced to get the most out of these rich details, ebbing and flowing with mesmeric balance.

As Andrew says:

Signal came together unexpectedly over the course of 2-3 months this spring and summer, during my morning commute to work. I wasn’t chasing a finished album; I was just recording, letting sounds build, and allowing the process to unfold without overthinking…a perfect kind of process after feeling creatively drained and burned out for much of the last year. It was not so much “composing” as it was “shaping.”
The music blends synthetic tones, sampled fragments, and found sounds, layered into dense environments. On the surface, the tracks sound relatively simple, but underneath are countless small shifts and details.
Everything was recorded on whatever I had with me - just laptop, tablet, or phone - with no studio setup and no separation from daily life. The result is four long pieces shaped by my routine surroundings and quiet observations: dense but open, simple but full, always shifting just beneath the surface.
Proof if ever it was needed that it’s the creativity of the artist that is the only thing that matters - Andrew has it in abundance, and has interpreted quiet details in his own inimitable way.

Huge thanks to Andrew for being part of the series.
Additional textures and production on the track Signal by Dave Mantel (recording as Naal).
The artwork was made as always influenced by the music and idea behind the album - originating from a photo from Andrew which was then captured with analogue photography and processed here at quiet details studios.

As usual, the album is presented on the physical edition, a custom six-panel digipack with a separate fine art print too.
The CD also has a special long-form continuous mix of the album, created by the artist and representing the music in its purest form.
