Channel Surfing

Channel Surfing

 

Channel Surfing is a quasi-vaporwave project. Meaning that it predates vaporwave, and was initially influenced by the glitch and idm scenes of the 90’s and early 2000’s.

With Channel Surfing, the focus is on microhouse and shoegaze.

On ‘Paradox In The Bathroom’. . . I took a detour, and focused on lyrics.

This time, it was the political solitude of an uncertain future.

The in-between moments, of both turmoil and tranquility in America.

Sonically, ‘Paradox’ uses Sound Design as a songwriting tool.

Drum machines were treated like synthesizers, field recordings were processed like guitars.

It is a very environmental spin on the “rock formula”

Channel Surfing is the band from the Mojave Desert.

The locus of Channel Surfing is “Ethereal Synthesis” in all it’s various forms.

From album to album, the locus changes, falling together or falling apart, but the same ethereal techniques apply in different ways.

Sometimes, outspoken and political, other times, quiet and interspective. Enjoy. . .
