Parallel Souls by Rorquals
In February of this year I performed my first live show in over two years. I wrote some brand new material for the set which mainly utilised playing sequences on a Korg Minilogue, and manipulating them with a Make Noise Strega and an assortment of other effects, along with playing back various tape looped samples via a Tascam 414 recorder.

I loved some of the ideas and techniques I had used to create the set, and thought that the material really needed documenting properly. So throughout March and April I began writing and recording more structured and streamlined versions of the pieces I had performed live. Parallel Souls is the result of these sessions.
The physical CD version of this EP also comes with my 2020 EP Eirene Epiales which is the first time it has been physically released. As always, thank you for your support.
