LCM - Thomas Dimuzio (Erototox Decodings) LP

Oakland’s LCM is a magical space where throngs on the fringes of music congregate to worship at the alter of sound, noise and amplitude. Once a chapel and nowa sacrilegious coven of life changing media. Thomas Dimuzio has frequently graced the LCM pulpit as a soloist; with Dimmer, and hosting his Mod-Life Crisis events. Thomas Dimuzio preaches to the choir channeling alien frequencies and radio transmissions seemingly out of thin air. An old testament LCM melds six of Dimuzio’s Buchla modular-based performances meld into Large Cresting Microwaves and Lush Calming Memories. Sanctioned as relics by the benevolent Erototox Decodings and etched into two sides of a vinyl slab. "It is a mystery how these sounds are produced, and that magic, like the production of the vinyl record itself, is some kind of alchemy. You take air and thoughts and these much-loved but esoteric machines, turn some dials and somehow whole universes form or different psyches manifest themselves, emerging whether dragged or eased into our welcoming light. Although otherworldly, the sounds on LCM have a human memory and we only need to open our ears and allow Mr Dimuzio, our guide, to show us the way." (Freq) Limited in edition to 100 copies.

PREVIOUS RELEASES...

Amid Zero Echo - Thomas Dimuzio (Drone Records)

"Thomas Dimuzio's "Amid Zero Echo" marks the new release from this US underground legend from San Francisco, whose massive hypnotic soundscapes already released in the 90's were much ahead of the time! Four new transcendental drone masterworks abstracted from electric guitar bristle with life through the dense, rich and detailed sonic expanse of Dimuzio's glorious sound world. Vibrating wires of the guitar inform a digital musique concrete modus operandi replete with unheard studio techniques which form a music with a strong organic core. These four drones open wide rooms for phantastic aural imaginations: like flying over endless grounds of unknown origin, sensing a heavy suction of extreme gravity, moving towards a black hole center, or driving into a totally dark mining tunnel with all the metallic ore and dust around.... These are drones that LIVE from the inside! The striking gatefold artwork by Mars Wellnick showcases two clear vinyl LPs in an equally compelling and beautifully designed package. Limited in edition to 500 copies."—Drone Records press release

Monk Style Or Scream - Alan Courtis and Thomas Dimuzio (Monotype Records)

Brought together in 2005 for a performance at San Francisco's venerable The Luggage Store Gallery, Anla Courtis and Thomas Dimuzio are introduced through the raw power of amplified music. Brothers in arms the duo remained in contact and in time began a recording project from afar. With a nod to classic cassette culture the distant combo exchanged source recordings with each artist concretely preparing a long-form work. The two tracks contained herein are a result of this collaboration. “Dimuzio creates dense patterns; Courtis reduces them to just a few layers. What at the start might have been the same material, is no longer at the end of the trail; two quite opposing pieces, but it works wonderful. Lovely green vinyl also and no doubt limited; for those who care about that.” —Vital Weekly. Limited in edition to 300 copies.

Golden State - Chris Cutler / Thomas Dimuzio / Fred Frith (RéR Megacorp)

A limited Edition of 1969 numbered copies pressed into 180 gram virgin vinyl and rather beautifully (and horribly expensively, as it turned out) packaged. The music was recorded in California in 1999 with guest Beth Custer (clarinet) on one track. Carefully mastered by Thomas Dimuzio in wide frequency, solid footprint, broad compass stereo. Solid and expansive. Though we waved goodbye to vinyl decades ago, we felt this release was made to be an LP - a CD just wouldn't be the same, sonically, visually or ontologically. And of course we took advantage of the exaggerated dimensions and physicality to make it a thing visually to savour. Off the groove, Dimuzio, Cutler, Frith and Custer do what they do and you get a ringside seat - as well as something exquisite to look at and play with while you listen. A thing of beauty. The first 150 will are signed and numbered on ochre vinyl, and 500 are pressed to white vinyl, so please order early to get these. The Wire enthuses "a heroic protest against the audio hygiene of digital studios - a rowdy celebration of live musical upheaval and filth."

End Of Mirrors - Alaric (Neurot Recordings)

"End of Mirrors" is the 2016 album from Oakland's Alaric. Operating at height of their powers, the quartet delivers a claustrophobic, gloomy, epically grandiose work. Shane Baker's lyrics are deeply personal and universal in scope. They reflect hard times in a fallen world at a time of monumental change in the lives of the band members. These are emotional and deeply physical journeys; inky, blackened stuff, but not without a glint of hope. It could be moonlight shining through a crack in the wall or maybe just a sickly glow visible out of the corner of one's eye. Jason Willer pummels the drums, driving forward with power and finesse, and then dropping down into a roiling boil of tribal toms. Bassist Rick Jacobus's woozy but solid lines carry the melody while filling out the sonic space with riding drone notes. "I am going for a 'sheets of electric rain' guitar sound," says guitarist Russ Kent, a master of his craft. He creates scintillating, cascading moments of beauty that open into crushing and aggressive distortion. As with their previous efforts, the LP was recorded and mixed by Skot Brown at his Kempton House studios. Brown's contributions have been crucial to realizing the vision of the band, expanding on it's creepy and complex soundscapes while giving the songs a chance to breathe and shine with exceptional clarity. The band also enlisted the sound artist and experimental electronic musician Thomas Dimuzio to contribute his unique atmospheric investigations to "End of Mirrors". Dimuzio employs a Buchla Polyphonic radio tuner, modular analog synthesizers and non-traditional methods.

Image is Everything - Thomas Dimuzio (Banned Production)

Compiled for Banned Production Cassette Series from two solo performances at the Edinburgh Castle tavern in San Francisco. Banned Production perseveres over decades of ground-breaking releases, even with the threat of cease and desist letters from BP. Check out the Banned Production website for an incredible catalog from a huge stable of artists."Thomas sets up a huge arsenal of equipment and then delivers a huge sonic boom with them. Long sustained textured sound with nuances and power. Recorded live in consecutive years ay my favorite pub in San Francisco, the Edinburgh." —Anthony King

Upcoming Events - Dan Burke and Thomas Dimuzio (No Fun Productions)

Further exploring the collaborative powers of Illusion Of Safety mastermind Dan Burke and prolific sound crafter Thomas Dimuzio, Upcoming Events is an unending spur of equal parts gorgeous and uncomfortably perplexing sound spread of 15 tracks. Crackles of electronic fire, tremolo-infused waves of sustained guitar, broken music boxes and found sounds among all other sorts of unfounded wails of gargantuan melancholy drone, Burke and Dimuzio's collaboration is a forceful collection of early industrial sound ruination combined with classic Krautrock ambiance of the Tangerine Dream/Cluster ilk reassuringly composed into something wholly modern and powerful.

Remissions - Dimmer (Isounderscore)

Double LP release from Isounderscore Records. "...Dimmer brings together two stalwarts of the California experimental community: Thomas Dimuzio and Joseph Hammer. The former skirts the boundaries between electro-acoustic technologies and improvisational abstraction, having collaborated with the likes of Chris Cutler, Matmos, Wobbly, Scott Arford, Illusion Of Safety and countless others. Mr. Hammer is one of the prominent members of the willfully oblique Los Angeles Free Music Society, having participated in such projects as Solid Eye, Points Of Friction, and Steaming Coils. Hammer's instrument of choice is the reel-to-reel tape deck, through which he can muster an uncanny palette of sound, noise, and drone. The two have worked together off and on for a good part of the last decade, with a handful of performances throughout California and a couple of releases - Remissions being their second and collecting some of the best moments from those live gigs... This is really exceptional stuff, and certainly some of the best that we've encountered from either artists individually." —Aquarius Records

The Shining Path - Dimmer (Melon Expander)

Swallowing audiences with their dark explorations of sound, Dimmer specializes in a symbiotic sound process as they continually loop, reloop, sample and resample within an interactive feedback circuit linking both artists. For their debut CD, Dimmer melds their recursive circuits into rich and seething sonic masses with subtle waves pulsing sound within sound. Ripe with theme and variation, The Shining Path suspends the listener over dim and dank planes on an aural trip spanning and scanning from a celestial vista. Nearly every aspect of Dimmer's live performances grace The Shining Path, yet this is not a live document, but rather a pastiche and reworking of everything Dimmer has accomplished.

“... a luminous snapshot of an artist, who deserves widespread exposure. Highly recommended.” — All About Jazz

“One of the top ten albums of 2002.” — Citypages

Dust
Chris Cutler and Thomas Dimuzio

"The first of two tracks is a long Requiem which for me turned out to be a very serious piece of work - and unrepeatable, captured at a concert in New Mexico. Whatever were we thinking? It's followed by a studio piece, mixing raw binaural sound with sophisticated and radical secondary processing. I use my extended electrified kit and Tom his state of the art sample and real-time processing rig and we try to work as a single, highly complex and sophisticated instrument, with two brains and a mind of its own." —Chris Cutler

“...filled with unheard sounds and textures.” (4 stars) — All Music Guide

“One of the top 100 albums of 2002.” — LA Weekly

Slew - Thomas Dimuzio (ReR Megacorp/Gench)

Slew pools more than a decade of studio works spanning compilations issued by RRRecords, Tzadik, Alku, Realization, Digital Narcis, Self Abuse, Cuneiform and other groundbreaking labels. More than a compilation of compilation tracks, Slew documents the evolution of an artist dedicated to an immersive world of sound and aural vision. Bringing together many out of print and hard to find gems, Slew blurs the bounds of electro-acoustic, digital musique concrete, drone, noise, dark ambient and industrial. Dimuzio’s sonic reworkings range from an Elvis impersonator (on parade), junkyard ambiance, electric guitar, piano, voice, clarinet, feedback and shortwave sounds to cellist Tom Cora and the music of Dr. Nerve. Also featured is a new bonus track constructed from Dimuzio’s locked-groove submissions for the releases RRR-500 (RRRecords) and LockERS (E.R.S.). Slew charts the path of a prolific sound artist and composer who has never been content to rest on his laurels, and points a reference to where his future musical journeys may take him.

midREM - Dimmer (Deathbomb Arc) CD

DIMMER's fourth album tells you right from the start where it manifests from, 'midREM'. Continuing the duo's work in live sampling, processing, feedback, looping by Thomas Dimuzio and tape manipulation and processing by Joseph Hammer - the sound crafted feels more substantial than a symbolic representation of dream sleep; it feels like hearing dreams themselves. DIMMER's most recent albums were on ISOUNDERSCORE and LA Free Music Society. Joseph Hammer is also a member of LAFMS. Thomas Dimuzio works in mastering with acts such as Clipping and Matmos. "Dimmer has a knack for disorientation. Hammer and Dimuzio turn in four extended ooze-clinics, slippery, bubbling over, primordial — and It’s somehow a surprise, every time, how quickly and easily a listener is lost in the digital surf. ...it’s twitchy, a glow stick macramé of shortwave, echo and balloon animal tonalities, slouching idly towards daybreak." (The Wire)

Redwoods Interpretive - Dimuzio/Wobbly/Courtis (Oscarson Records) LP

There wasn’t even time to visit the Redwoods. In 2019, Argentine sound artist Anla Courtis visited the San Francisco Bay Area for 48 hours to play and record with electronic musicians Thomas Dimuzio and Jon Leidecker. Courtis’ intuitive and abstracted approach to guitar fed the inputs of the machines piloted by his collaborators, deploying techniques of real time live-sampling and machine listening to create sonic labyrinths of unarbitrary complexity. In the resulting interlace, any decision made by Courtis instantaneously guides and provokes every other layer in the mix, creating a kind of technological music that only humans can produce. "The five cuts are glorious abstractions. Dimuzio’s modular synth spirals, Courtis’s slithering guitar and Leidecker's voluminous electronics build and destroy nocturnal atmospheres, while glowing eyes hide in the shadow of each expression. At times Dimuzio’s pulsing phrases flee to the ether and intrigue some curious animal, only for them to respond with accumulating and collapsing buzzes, sacral organ reverberations, frightened bass whispers and stray shortwave bricolage. It all leads to a mantra, before disappearing into a noisy night." (The Wire)

Losing Circles - Marcia Bassett and Thomas Dimuzio (Yew Recordings) LP

Get ready for a head trip. Losing Circles is a sublime manifestation of sound interference, texture, and ultra, low-end synth waves that literally penetrate the listener's body. The pair bonded over their Buchla systems, first meeting at Thomas's radio show, Frequency Modulation Radio at KPFA, Berkeley, California where they had their initial improv jam. Their second meeting, documented here on, Losing Circles, was recorded at the historical revival style Williamsburg Library. While the classic Buchla sound is identifiable on the recordings, it does not define the recordings. Shortwave voices appear and disrupt, lose themselves in the multiplicity of patterns, random frequencies erupt into a whirlwind of frenzied staccato scratches dissipating into fragmentary dimensions. Conscious and unconscious meet bearing an asymmetric modulation of movement. A collective imagination held in sound abstraction slowly unfurls in a low-end bloom of steady gradual alteration, a vast deep cavernous drone of subtle control. The added bonus is the stunning trance inducing op-art by Pete Greening on the cover that will have listeners Losing Circles! Edition of 200.

Balance - Thomas Dimuzio (Gench Music) CDx3

49 Artists, 28 shows, 10 years… Thomas Dimuzio and friends deliver a stunning live anthology of noise, dark ambient, textural, experimental, and electro-acoustic music in distinct duo, trio, and combo configurations. Exquisite excerpts combine the sublime synergy of live spontaneous music with the visceral energy of the stage across this colossal and compelling collection. Dimuzio’s modular electronics and live-sampling prowess serve as the common thread as he teams with a dazzling array of fringe music luminaries: Scott Amendola, Cilla Vee, Bob Bellerue, Chuck Bettis, Easy Bake Oven, Illusion Of Safety, Demonsleeper, Fugitive Pope, Alan Courtis, Beth Custer, Matmos, Antimatter, Evelyn Davis, Nick Didkovsky, Sharkiface, Jon Evans, Thea Farhadian, Kris Force, Phillip Greenlief, Solid Eye, Emily Hay, Shelley Hirsch, Motoko Honda, Aurora Josephson, Blevin Blectum, Joe Lasqo, Wobbly, Scott Looney, Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe, Michael Lytle, Ava Mendoza, T.D. Skatchit, Transient, Arcane Device, Kanoko Nishi-Smith, Rick Reed, Gino Robair, Xambuca, Moe! Staiano, Amma Ateria, Larry Thrasher, Richard Teitelbaum, Lori Varga, Music For Hard Times, and Kit Young.

SLEW TEW - Thomas Dimuzio (Gench Music) CD

SLEW TEW CD compiles 13 compilation tracks spanning 2003 to 2017 originally released by Ratskin, Anarchymoon, Margen, Bridge, Secret Life Of Sound, Aural Films, S4G, Voidstar Productions and others. Continuing where SLEW (hailed as "brilliant and rarely less than entertaining" by Peter Marsh at the BBC) left off, the pair together comprises the artist's ultimate compendium of compilation contributions. Opening with a batch of Buchla-fueled compositions, SLEW TEW displays the artist’s knack for spatial dimension across often thickly layered compositions. SLEW TEW is not merely a compilation of compilation tracks, but instead an album with a flow carrying the listener from station to station. SLEW TEW closes with an excerpt from an immersive surround-sound performance (recorded at the Exploratorium in San Francisco) based the calls of humpback whales. Stunningly beautiful call and response patterns captured in original the NOAA source recordings are taken fathoms deeper with Dimuzio's sonic ambiance and spatialization techniques.

Sutro Tranmissions - Thomas Dimuzio (Resipiscent Records) LP

"For the first time, San Francisco legend Thomas Dimuzio presents an all Buchla-synthesizer album. Custom algorithmic crossfades of complex sound synthesis fuel this metabolism of mind and machine in real-time, no overdubs. His Buchla 272e module incorporates a polyphonic FM tuner introducing chance-factors snatched from live transmissions and steered via algorithmic mixing through oscillator arrays and envelope generators before spilling into the ears of blood-pumping audiences huddled in the slanting five thousand foot shadow of SF's iconic Sutro Tower. Each track is a site specific improvisation blooming in the dark of two underground venues on opposite ends of Haight Street just blocks from where Buchla invented the world's first synthesizer. “This is the wizard the land of Oz wished for: boundless, benemalevolent, shrouded in torrents of sound, daring lions to speak and machines to feel. Dimuzio sets your straw brains alight to melt your metal heart while your furry ears crisp and yowl.”

ISIS Temporal includes "Holy Tears" remix by Thomas Dimuzio

"Temporal" compiles outakes and demos spanning the 10 year career of art metal masters ISIS. Thomas Dimuzio's remix of "Holy Tears" originally appeared on the ISIS EP "Not In Rivers, But In Drops" but is reissued here by Ipecac Recordings for "Temporal". The Melvins and Lustmord also contribute remixes.

"Their 1999 take on Black Sabbath's "Hand of Doom" is serviceable, but it effectively offers a reminder that Isis soon applied its gumption to cerebral, and not stoner, metal. Noise guy Thomas Dimuzio captures that quality on his brilliant remix of "Holy Tears", previously issued in 2008. Instead of circumscribing Isis' power, Dimuzio enhances it by adding instrumental layers that recreate the band's sudden surges, like monoliths in fields of little relief. It's the rare heavy metal remix that intuits the band’s ambitions and emboldens them." —Pitchfork Media

THE WATT FROM PEDRO SHOW

MUSIC WITH WOBBLY

Mirrored Cell For Chameleon
Wobbly & Thomas Dimuzio

Some 35 years ago, Don Joyce, member of legendary Bay Area experimental musicians-slash-cultural pranksters Negativland, launched a radio show on KPFA called Over The Edge. OTE, which Joyce commandeered every week until his passing in 2015, is essentially a platform for experimental music broadcast live on radio. After Joyce's passing, veteran experimental musician and newfound Negativland member Jon Leidecker (aka Wobbly) became steward of OTE and refocused it on live electronic music performance. Mirrored Cell for Chameleon is a 45-minute collaborative work between Leidecker and Thomas Dimuzio, recorded live on the radio, and it portrays all that ambient music has to offer. Chameleon is a soothing alabaster listen. There are no hooks and often no rhythms, and its beginning and end seem totally arbitrary. Chameleon, like all fine ambient music, is an expression of musical infinity. Monolithic in sound and feeling, listening to Chameleon will make time stop. I suspect some listeners may find Chameleon a "boring" listen. To that, all I can offer are John Cage's immortal words: "If something is boring for two minutes, try it for four. If still boring, then eight. Then sixteen. Then thirty-two. Eventually one discovers that it is not boring at all."

Prism Saxophone Quartet resurrects Ice Cream Time for May 2013 East Coast Performances

Prism Saxophone Quartet reunites Nick Didkovsky and Thomas Dimuzio for a performance of "Ice Cream Time". The hour-long epic was released on New World Records in August, 2007 and originally commissioned by the Arte Saxophone Quartet (based in Basel, Switzerland). After a successful concert with Arte at FIMAV in Victoriaville in 2008, the ensemble embarked on several European tours with shows in Italy, Germany, and Switzerland. This May 2013 sees performances of "Ice Cream Time" with Prism Saxophone Quartet at Philadelphia Museum of Art and at Roulette in Brooklyn.
