Quarkspace Matt Howarth

Quarkspace re-release Node in Peril on Bandcamp

by

As the end of the year approaches, here’s the latest news from Quarkspace and Church of Hed. Needless to say, 2020 challenged all of us. Hopefully, 2021 offers a chance at a rebound. Either way, expect new music from us (well, at least Church of Hed)!

Node in Peril Now Available on Bandcamp

When legendary comic book artist, Matt Howarth contacted us about doing a project together back in 2003-4, we were game. The resultant Node in Peril is a combination comic book/CD with Matt’s great artwork and storyline. It also features our most psychedelic music. For the December Free Bandcamp Friday, we re-released the album.

Either purchase the comic book/CD or just the digital music. Of course, we’d prefer if you bought the full package. It’s a great piece of outer sci-fi art!

Church of Hed Release Caesar Grinder Salad on Bandcamp

I also released a new extended single on Bandcamp — Caesar Grinder Salad. For this track, I mashed up two classic Quarkspace loops, Recaesarian and Astral Grinder, and added a few overdubs. It’s a classic slab of electronic music meets spacerock whilst odd time-signatures abound. Check it out!

Of course, expect more surprises for the next round of Free Bandcamp Fridays, starting in February.

Fresh Church of Hed Video on YouTube

Speaking of Recaesarian, I performed the Quarkspace track as part of my live stream this summer. Additionally, I did a version of the track with the superior sound quality of a board mix. I uploaded that to YouTube. Check it out!

I continue to rehearse a second set of material, with more Quarkspace material being featured this time out. With new video software on its way, expect some form of a live show video as opposed to a stream. Facebook’s new interface really sucks, which gives us a good reason to choose better sound quality. Expect a YouTube upload, and I may upload it to Facebook as well.

Our Holiday Sale Lasts Until January 3rd

We are also doing a Bandcamp 50 percent off deal until January 3rd, 2021. Just enter “2020holidaze” when checking out to get half-off your order. Add a bit of psychedelic spacerock, prog, and electronic music to your Holidays!
