1-Bit Symphony

I finally found Tristan Perich's 2010 1-Bit Symphony full album online that I can share.  (I hate those bursts of commercials breaking the flow of the album though.)  Enjoy.

1-Bit Symphony T.O.

I posted this about a year ago. It finally arrived here in Toronto! I have read about it on the internet and listened to one of its five movements. Now I can actually own it! I found Tristan Perich's microchip music 1-Bit Symphony when I visited his show at Interaccess last weekend.

The microchip and its circuit are contained in a bare undecorated CD case.  The packaging is minimal but the music is rich and powerful.  The spirit is definitely experimental.  I am so happy I finally found it.  Here's a short clip of Movement 3:

Perich's Microtonal Wall

Tristan Perich's Microtonal Wall consists of 1500 small speakers arranged in a grid and mounted on to a 25 foot long panel.  Each of these small speakers emits a single different 1-bit tone, which becomes a voice in a sonic mass that shifts and transforms in relationship to the listener's position in the room.

1-Bit music

Tristan Perich was another artist featured at Playlist.  His 1-Bit Symphony is musically grand though conceptually minimal.
