After over 20 years of creating cutting edge music as band members and as session musicians, individually as well as together, multi-instrumentalist Mike Fazio and master percussionist Thomas Hamlin, finally, have created a work of musical art in the highest degree they can proudly call their own. A work that has no boundaries, no limits, with no pretense, solely for the sake of creating art in the midst of a corporate music industry increasingly obsessed with predictable product.
Sundiving has been painstakingly recorded in audiophile 32 bit 96K fidelity and is now released on the Faith Strange independent label out of NY in a special limited pressing. To create the intriguing and complex synthesizer tracks used throughout the recording, Fazio utilized granular and modular synthesis technology at the software level and designed each new module in order to capture the surreal sounds he wanted to portray on this recording. Most defy description culminating in a body of work that is futuristic and unclassifiable. Electric & pedal steel guitars have been added into the mix but if you didn't know where they were, you would never guess you were listening to guitars. A multitude of ethnic and electronic percussion kits have been recorded and processed through a host of analog & digital devices as well, as to obscure them into a symphony of rhythm and beat. Sometimes tribal, sometimes extreme dance. It is very safe to say that you do not have another recording in your collection that sounds quite like this one.
Purely as points of reference for the uninitiated, the listening effect can be likened to a theoretical consort of the most esoteric sides of the eclectic neo-classical Eastern European composers Krzysztof Penderecki, György Ligeti and Béla Bartók, hinting on the electronic experiments of ClockDVA, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Coil, Fripp & Eno, Bitches Brew electro-bop era Miles Davis, Jade Warrior and Bill Nelson. The adventuresome first cut on the cd, 'Clouds Of Granite In A Clearing Sky' clocks in at over 38 minutes and is divided into 3
