Open edition
Quimby Variations, Vol. 1 documents a month of live electronic improvisations, recorded throughout May 2025 using a modular synthesizer and other hardware equipment. Described by The Wire Magazine in issue #500 as "compositions that have the same cosmic twinkle as Suzanne Ciani's 1982 LP Seven Waves without slipping over the line into new agery" and "an easily groovable effort with a catnip-like ability to appease fickle sensibilities."
Captured in single takes with minimal editing, each track is labeled with the date in which it was made, forming a semi-chronological archive of sonic experiments.
The cover artwork merges two black & white film photographs in a dreamlike double exposure - a pastoral scene of cows grazing in a field atop a snapshot of Knoxville, Tennessee's historic southern railway station - creating a surreal image that echoes the music’s own layered textures, imperfect alignments, and embrace of happy accidents.
