Gregor Asch is DJ Olive. He's an electronic and ambient musician, and a visual artist, now living in the mountains of British Columbia, Canada. He helped create a fresh experimental music and art scene in the early nineties in Brooklyn, New York forming an art collective called LaLaLandia and performing in the electronic and dance music scenes. So prior to moving to the small town of Nelson, BC in the late 2000s, his 2018 sound art installation called Listening to Fir at the Touchstones Nelson: Museum of Art & History may have seemed unlikely. But after spending time working on a portable saw mill and constructing with the native woods of his adopted home area, Olive was inspired to consider the life rings of fir trees as wooden records, going so far as playing slices of these trees on old turntables to see what they sounded like. The project evolved into a full sound art installation that would include ambient music from earlier in his career.

The interview with DJ Olive was hosted and recorded by Dave Bellard.

Jason Sloan is an electronic musician, composer, and sound artist currently residing in Baltimore, MD. His work explores immateriality and its relationship to memory, systems, and the virtual world.

He’s been releasing music in the ambient and space music scenes for close to two decades. His discography includes over a dozen ambient solo albums and another half dozen post-punk minimal-wave releases under the moniker l’avenir. The two proejcts are interrelated, but distinctly different sides to the music of Jason Sloan.

In the mid 1990s, guitarist and producer James Plotkin was exploring and experimenting. In this episode, my old friend and collaborator Dave Bellard chats with Plotkin about what he was working on during the mid-1990s when Plotkin wrote and recorded a trilogy of albums that became some of his most definitive work, including the 1996 solo album, The Joy of Disease. Earlier this year, Plotkin released The Joy of Disease: Demos and Remixes, which consists of home recorded instrumental versions of the tracks that made it onto the album, along with unreleased remixes by Plotkin himself and co-producer and long time collaborator Mick Harris. Bellard provided the artwork for the new release, along with a series of archival releases from Plotkin’s back catalog available at his Bandcamp page.

*** Special thanks to Dave for capturing and sharing this conversation ***

Gray Acres is a side project by Andrew and Michael Tasselmyer, two-thirds of the ambient | soundscape | drone band, Hotel Neon. Their debut full length album, Gray Acres, was recently released on sound in silence, a boutique label based in Athens, Greece. It is filled will beautiful lush ambient soundscapes, similar but different from the work of Hotel Neon. I recently had the privilege of hosting the brothers for a performance at The Sixth Floor, a performance space at the top of The Candy Factory in downtown Lancaster, and catching up on the relationship between Gray Acres and their work with Hotel Neon.
