Elijah Holden | XVII
The Chicago-based artist (who also plays in the Julian Lynch live ensemble and the band Conductive Alliance) has the rest of 33 Spokes at soundcloud, which includes “a Kubu shaman’s incantation… a Pentecostal minister inciting his congregation to speak in tongues… Robert Oppenheimer (‘father of the atomic bomb’) reflecting upon seeing the first test nuclear explosion.” He plans to self-release it physically in April.
