Previously of the group ERAAS, Robert places a greater emphasis on electronics in this new project. Rhythm is at the forefront, with the tone informed by stripped down, narcotic impressions of\u00a0krautrock, hypnotic percussion, and subtly layered atmospherics.<\/p>\n<p>To call it minimal would, on the surface, seem appropriate.\u00a0Wuthering Drum\u00a0does not need an abundance of flashes and frills to illustrate its point, nor does it need smoke and mirrors to mask a lack of vision. However, repeated listens yield layers of tonal variations, textural nuance, and tastefully placed overdubs. The\u00a0Korg\u00a0MS-20 does the lion\u0092s share of tonal work, but listen carefully to the percussion and try to see where electronic ends, organic begins, and vice-versa.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a slightly religious or spiritual element at &#8216;Wuthering Drum\u0092s&#8217; core; a sense of being in an existential crisis, while simultaneously being uplifted, in the face of change. The focus is on a kind of renewal, but not in the New Age, aggressively positive sense. This is the search for redemption in a far away place, away from comfort; it&#8217;s adjustment to an inner dissonance, rather than the washing over of past fears and regrets with sterile holy waters.<\/p>\n<p><strong><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-19782\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/vTOkgaZ.jpg?resize=315%2C315\" alt=\"Public Memory Wuthering Drums cover\" width=\"315\" height=\"315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/vTOkgaZ.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/vTOkgaZ.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/vTOkgaZ.jpg?resize=144%2C144&amp;ssl=1 144w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/vTOkgaZ.jpg?w=480&amp;ssl=1 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 315px) 100vw, 315px\" \/><br \/>\nTrack listing:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Heir<br \/>\nMirror<br \/>\nRingleader<br \/>\nDomino<br \/>\nCul De Sac<br \/>\nAs Your Wish<br \/>\nInterfaith<br \/>\nZig Zag<br \/>\nEarwig<br \/>\nLunar<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Wuthering\u00a0Drum&#8217;<em>\u00a0<\/em>is out March 18<sup>th<\/sup>, it can be pre-ordered now via the\u00a0felte <a href=\"https:\/\/felte.bandcamp.com\" target=\"_blank\">webstore<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Brooklyn-based\u00a0Public Memory has shared \u0093Zig Zag,\u0094 the latest single from his forthcoming debut, &#8216;Wuthering Drum,&#8217;\u00a0which will be\u00a0out March 18th\u00a0via felte.\u00a0Zig Zag\u0094 offers a more beat-led <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=19781\" title=\"Public Memory shares new single \u0093&#8217;Zig Zag&#8217;\u0094\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":19783,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[23,28,30,1907],"tags":[3757,3756,3758,4257,4241],"class_list":["post-19781","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-indie","category-music","category-new-release","category-news","tag-felte","tag-public-memory","tag-robert-toher","tag-wuthering-drum","tag-zig-zag"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/ZxbpQws.jpg?fit=569%2C480&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2B2TV-593","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":20838,"url":"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=20838","url_meta":{"origin":19781,"position":0},"title":"Public Memory streams debut album &#8216;Wuthering Drum&#8217;","author":"cultureaddicts","date":"March 15, 2016","format":false,"excerpt":"This Friday, Public Memory aka Robert Toher will release 'Wuthering Drum,' his debut album via felte.
