#10: Seth Graham (Orange Milk Records): "From the valley"
(This episode was originally broadcast August 17, 2021)
On today's show, Steve Flato speaks with Seth Graham. Seth Graham is a Ohio based visual artist, composer and co-owner of Orange Milk Records with an academic background in Philosophy. He focuses on compositions which highlight tropes across a broad range of musical genres using midi data, Max MSP and samples. His intention is to manifest intersections of classical avant garde and modern popular music with compositions ranging from playful sample arrangements to dense digital synthesis. Seth Graham’s work has been published by music imprints Orange Milk, Noumenal Loom, We Time Audio. He was commissioned by the Russian Ensemble Kymatic to write 4 pieces in tribute to Philip Glass that was performed during 2017 at the Museum of Media and Arts in Moscow. He has been written about in Rolling Stone, NPR, Tiny Mix Tapes, Impose, FACT, and other publications.
We discuss Seth's discography, particularly the new record with Mari from More Eaze, "The Heart Pumps Kool-Aid" under the alias ---__--___. We also get into Seth's ultra-conservative parents and his upbringing in Japan as an English-speaking boy from Ohio; intuition in the creative process; the importance of an artistic space and managing home life with time for art and music; composition and the process behind "Gasp" and "No.00 in clean life" (Seth's previous solo albums).
