Music For Factories

B.C. Williamson, the famed blues musician, wrote this press statement, announcing the release of his long ambient piece, “Music For Factories”

“My dear friends,
I write to apologize for a delay in the online release of my reissued “Sounds From A Dark Room” album. I was told by associates only last week that further foundations had to be put in place before the album can be released: analog to digital conversion, copyrights, and so on. Don’t worry, we will all be able to hear the album online within the next few months. Until then, I would like to give you an exclusive track - I have been working on it for the last few months in the home studio - as a token of my gratitude of your kind support. It is a 30 minute long ambient piece, though far detached from the abrasive noise of the “Sounds From A Dark Room” period. It was performed on an ARP 2600 synthesizer (I owned one of the very first ones made), and edited on a simple sequencer, with layers of different tracks mixed together to create (I hope) a richly textured piece of gently evolving music applicable for many different environments. A factory was only my suggestion; you are welcome to play the track in any building of your choice. I created the artwork on Photoshop. Thank you for your continued support; this track only represents a small section of my deep gratitude.
Regards, B.C. Williamson”
