R4

[Aug. 13, 2024] -- "Repulser," a double-disc album of droning ambient noise is out now on Fusion Audio Recordings.

[June 24, 2024] -- This page was long overdue for an update. I've been working diligently on new stuff that'll be coming this year and next on Fusion Audio and elsewhere. I have a collaboration project out right now. My first full-length solo album since 2001 will be released this summer. A couple more mini-CDRs are planned.

* Oxidation released Paradox Encounter Group and R4's Scene Shifting, two discs of noisey atmospheric sound that has the feel of a film score. Scene Shifting was recorded in 2023 and released on June 15, 2024. It is available at Oxidation's Bandcamp.

* R4 appears once again on Zaftig Research's annual holiday sampler with an industrial/rhythmic noise track titled "The Queen's 1957 Christmas Speech" leading off the 2023 edition, Vising Kings. Visit Zaftig Research at http://zaftigresearch.com.

* Reactor is available on limited edition mini-CDR and digitally from Inner Demons Records. The 21-minute noise-ambient piece was created in 2022 while news headlines described nightmarish scenarios as Russian forces attacked the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in Ukraine.

* Zaftig Research's 2022 holiday compilation, Peace On Earth, includes a contribution from R4 created using cut up sounds from a lo-fi recording of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The track is aptly titled, "FDR's 1941 Christmas Speech." Zaftig Research is at http://zaftigresearch.com.

* The first new R4 disc in two decades, a mini-CDR with a painted fold-out cover, has been released by Fusion Audio Recordings. It's also available on FAR's Bandcamp.

* R4 contributed a track based on H.P. Lovecraft's poem "Christmastide" to Zaftig Research's 2021 noise/experimental holiday composition, Warm Holiday Wishes.
