Welcome & new release - Three-Fall Dam
Hello anyone out there reading this. I'll break in this new site & blog with a new release. When I first started this project, it was a creative outlet for me at time when I was all but bedridden. I had no idea what I was doing, but had been collecting some field recordings and snippets of riffs played on my electric guitar and a keyboard gifted to me for years with the hope I'd use them one day. I downloaded a DAW on my phone, as well as an open source synth app (which I still use, and love), and then found a drum machine/percussion app that displays your pattern as a circle. I had played around with that one a little bit and used some heavily processed versions of beats I made for a tape I made and that is forthcoming on Mouhoi, but wanted to try making some songs that centred around percussion. And that's where I got Three-Fall Dam. This release is a bit different from my others, but I don't feel too much a departure, and also not a new direction I'll be taking, but just a muscle I wanted to work a little. Here's what Max graciously wrote for me about it: Nimmie Amee's "Three-Fall Dam" maintains the project’s finely-tuned vignette writing style while being filtered through a dark and elusive ghostly lens. Each track possesses a disembodied ambience, with melancholic and brooding scenes being guided by haptic percussion and swelling melodies. Misty and smouldering like a freshly snuffed match, rain-drenched rhythms roaring from cars heard from apartment windows. Completely unrestrained and beautifully evocative work intended to both disarm and immerse. You can listen to it for free on bandcamp, and contact me at beetraverse@proton.me if you'd like a physical copy. They look like this:
