I’m thrilled to announce that my first solo record “Spotlight City” will be releasing May 3rd on @castlefacerecs . You can stream the first single “Cessna”, watch its accompanying music video by @mutantleafling and pre-order the limited edition half evergreen, half clear color vinyl from my Bandcamp (link in bio). Black vinyl will be available thru revolver distribution.
Here’s a blurb about Spotlight City from John Dwyer:
“Artificial landscapes and mellodies comprised of Moog Grandmother, Mellotron and a kinky Modular system span from beautiful and lilting to haunting and etherial. The album was a years long learning experience of getting all components and ingredients to link arms and blend comfortably.
Wrangling was part of the process. Strings soaring and sines weaving.
Sometimes in the atmosphere, sometimes in the Earth’s core, sometimes flanked by neon blur as it hums & weave patterns through a world imagined in vintage sci-fi pulp.
An absolute necessary slab for anyone a fan of CF, OSEES, Popol Vuh soundtracks , 8 bit video game accompaniment & 80s Tangerine Dream“ -JPD
