Vince Nudo recently released his soundtrack album to the documentary film Mary Heilmann: Waves, Roads & Hallucinations on July 26, 2024 as the first release on hs own record label Doom to Bloom. The gorgeously sprawling concluding track “Everyone Here Reminds Me of You” builds with layers of harmonic loops and threads of drone that flow through and add an inflection of mood that create a rich soundscape that is minimal in its sonic signature but constantly evolving, drawing you further into a narrative suggested by the title. The arpeggiated figure that runs throughout the piece is hypnotic and anchors each element that build the song to an increasingly rich and dramatic cinematic mood that sounds like something from a Michael Mann film. Think Moby’s “God Moving Over the Face of the Waters” or Kronos Quartet’s contributions to the soundtrack of Heat as well. It has a similar quality of entering into a heightened dream state with its blend of tranquility and sense of transcending normal worldly boundaries. Listen to “Everyone Here Reminds Me of You” on Spotify and follow Nudo at the links below. Some may know Nudo for his work as the drummer in Kurt Vile’s backing band The Violators as his time as the drummer and founding member of Priestess but it’s clear his efforts in sound design and experimental music while not on the road have been fruitful as well.
