Then, while listening to the musical accompaniment options that come alive in my head, determining what to play or "channel" within the mix. This usually becomes a bass line that helps the music take off, land, or groove around the melody. </div><div dir="auto" style="caret-color: rgb(5, 5, 5); color: #050505; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">- Soupbone</div><div dir="auto" style="caret-color: rgb(5, 5, 5); color: #050505; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/SoupboneMusic">https://www.facebook.com/SoupboneMusic</a><br /></div>Studio Appalachiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13622956138098764199noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7664438623502433346.post-2094475619537693102022-09-29T09:39:00.002-07:002022-09-29T09:39:52.089-07:00Spectral Arts & The Creative Process<p> I remember one early session Doug Eagle V. (our drummer) and I had in his family house back in 1994, we were still searching for a sound and had not started to work with Eric L. yet on what would become The Spiritworld and later Spectral Arts. I began to sing my poems in a way that emulated popular and angst driven vocalists at the time from bands like Nine Inch Nails and Nirvana and Doug said simply “man, don’t sing like that”, it was clear, direct and what I needed to hear at the time and most likely saved me from decades of trying to create music that was not really who I was for the sake of it being more popular. I never forgot that one afternoon in the practice space and I never returned to trying to sing like I had ripped my heart out and was watching it beat in my own hands. We needed to find out what worked for our own artistic sensibilities and not base our music on what people expected it should be at the time.</p><p>-T.

Usually it starts with a member starting to play something. Listening to the others is very important. I usually don't have a certain beat on the drums in mind when we start jamming. I flow off the other musicians. I feel like I play better when I think less about it. It feels very zen.</span></p><p><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); color: #222222; font-size: small;">-Cory T.</span></p><p><a href="http://mothlightva.weebly.com">http://mothlightva.weebly.com</a><br /></p>Studio Appalachiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13622956138098764199noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7664438623502433346.post-53752626293089483902022-02-08T12:35:00.000-08:002022-02-12T12:35:59.026-08:00Alcyone 2007-2020<p>Spectral Arts </p><p>@spectralartsva</p><p>Alcyone 2007-2020</p><p>Available now @</p><p><a href="https://studioappal.bandcamp.com/album/alcyone">https://studioappal.bandcamp.com/album/alcyone</a><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjqq41YQKaGWGU0M-pp9_ack5tk_IXq4lyX40R5HKCs40eA4U95ZrQQGIDpxMslDTyK6L_2LmbKXXI3SVUJsvmyhuyBl6-seZI8mV-JeeX6mCVgjsnDcjtq4FiKHbamjZPB9NnaBimnj7XvZgOCrV2hYhSSyclENpNn2GLsjvuubpTkgyI1LUcbU_8CIQ=s700" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="700" data-original-width="700" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjqq41YQKaGWGU0M-pp9_ack5tk_IXq4lyX40R5HKCs40eA4U95ZrQQGIDpxMslDTyK6L_2LmbKXXI3SVUJsvmyhuyBl6-seZI8mV-JeeX6mCVgjsnDcjtq4FiKHbamjZPB9NnaBimnj7XvZgOCrV2hYhSSyclENpNn2GLsjvuubpTkgyI1LUcbU_8CIQ=s320" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p>Studio Appalachiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13622956138098764199noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7664438623502433346.post-22639613174924923332021-05-30T09:36:00.003-07:002021-05-31T00:16:40.957-07:00From Bishop Seraphim Sigrist<div class="kvgmc6g5 cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql ii04i59q" style="caret-color: rgb(5, 5, 5); color: #050505; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">Before our chat today we had a brief (20 minute) presentation from the studio of Spectral Arts.

After being in a short lived band with Will Simmons of Milkbadger and Bees Make Honey, I was asked to join <span class="il">Crayon</span> as a singer in '89 (before the band became Blindspot). That was an amazing time and my exposure to the artists in that band (Scott Flory, Duncan Macomber and Yax Lacey) proved invaluable. I also ended up meeting our drummer of over 20 years in that band (Doug Eagle V.) and after a period of time in an alt rock band called Dirty Pictures (featuring D.W. Baugh on drums and Adam Hodge on Guitars), Doug and I began recording performance poetry using a 4 track as The Spooks in early '93. At that point we focused on doing XYZ benefits and local gallery performances and they have been our primary venues since then. We have worked/recorded with a few guitarists (also under the name the Spiritworld).<br style="line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px; outline: transparent 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;" /><br style="line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px; outline: transparent 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;" />-2009<br style="line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px; outline: transparent 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;" /><br style="line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px; outline: transparent 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;" /><br style="line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px; outline: transparent 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;" /><br style="line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px; outline: transparent 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;" /><span class="il">Crayon</span> was a major template for us in later bands and the first band in which I was encouraged to actually sing my poetry during performances. Joining the band was something like being asked to play in Nirvana at the time for local musicians. <span class="il">Crayon</span> gave us new courage to move forward and explore in later bands as well and there would never have been a Spectral Arts had we not had some role in <span class="il">Crayon</span> in our early days together. We had somewhat of a (surprise) <span class="il">Crayon</span> reunion this evening at our studio when Scott Flory arrived with his guitar (our last jam together was in 1993 with Duncan Macomber on Bass and Butch Lazorchek on drums). I mentioned to Scott that I had been trying to tell my band mates the significance of our early work with <span class="il">Crayon</span> for years, but after he played a few songs with our group I think they understood. <span class="il">Crayon</span> was a band that changed our lives forever.<br style="line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px; outline: transparent 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;" /><br style="line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px; outline: transparent 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;" />-2013</span></p><p><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="color: #3e3e3e; font-size: 16px; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px; outline: transparent 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;"><br /></span></p><p><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="color: #3e3e3e; font-size: 16px; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px; outline: transparent 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">Spectral Arts and Project Morning Star are the last incarnations of the early work we began in 1989. The spirit of Crayon has permeated those bands in regard to how we have approached our music collectively and in terms of artistic openness and spontaneity. What we learned about working together creatively has carried us forward 30 years now. God has given us a joy and love we have for creating with one another musically and that has endured. </span></p><p><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="color: #3e3e3e; font-size: 16px; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px; outline: transparent 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">-2021</span></p><p><span style="color: #3e3e3e;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(62, 62, 62);">by T.

It never made sense to me that a band needed to be named after one person in it, even if you write the music or lyrics yourself, you are still standing there with 4-5 other people on stage, it remains a group effort to both create and deliver the songs in our band. Making time to allow our songs to be born has been important for us-the right state of mind and openness is key. When things are aligning right for us and we are listening to each other well, miracles can happen but we have to be paying attention and we have to take the time for it. In our group each person plays a crucial role in our composition, we arrive at a song by spontaneously joining all of the elements together, when it does show up we hope the recorder is on and then we can take some time to listen to it after we lay it down and make sense of it. We often liken our process to a group fishing trip, but we all have to throw the lines in the water before we can catch any fish, standing on the shore talking about it won’t bring any supper home.</div><div dir="auto" style="caret-color: rgb(5, 5, 5); color: #050505; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">-T.

The liberation of the ordinary is finding the eternal in the moment now-there is a sacred space of connection which transcends time itself and is born through spontaneity and my work has been to attempt to bring forth this language of light. We are curious bystanders at the crossroads of conscious and unconscious thought. Imagination, then, is the child of the dream and the mind. Poetry is a state of Grace.</div><div style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">-T.
