after 2016s mini-album shady and light, composer and guitarist martyn heyne releases his first full-length record electric intervals on the new 7k! imprint. says heyne: the number of parameters that determine a recording appears to be infinite. the mood, instrument, tuning, mics, room, temperature, time of day, all contribute to sound. the magic, once captured, is impossible to recreate. this might seem a hindrance, but its really the whole point of recording for me. opener carry, for example, is a composition carefully developed over months with most of the production happening in front of the microphone. wilde wide, however, was recorded only once as an early-morning improvisation. having worked with dustin ohalloran on the emmy-winning transparent soundtrack and with clarinettist claudio puntin as part of the duo set aglow, heynes sound is one of simplified diversity. on his debut album he controls each melody with the precision of a veteran producer.
