I am pleased to announce my latest album, ‘Phases‘, is now up for pre-sale. 250 copies on 180g Black Vinyl, and limited edition digipak CD and Download. Mastered by the wonderful Chuck Johnson at Cirrus Oxide Studio. Here’s a little about the album:
Stereocilia’s latest album, Phases, is a dynamic exploration of sound, structured into two distinct halves that take the listener on an evolving journey through electronic and psych-drone landscapes.
Side A begins with “Have We Lost Our Minds?”, a track that sets a contemplative tone with shimmering and pulsating synths, gradually building into a swirling electronic landscape. “Diminished” follows with a darker, more atmospheric palette, where glitchy electronics and subtle rhythms create a sense of unease. “Float” offers a more expansive, ethereal moment, with airy melodies that drift above minimal electronic textures, while “Vessels” introduces heavier, more propulsive beats, signalling the transition into the album’s second phase.
Side B marks a shift into deep, psych drone territory, starting with “No Way Out,” a fast, immersive track filled with droning guitars and atmospheric feedback. “Idle Hands” deepens this descent into psych-drone, layering dense waves of distortion that ebb and flow. “Trust” is a more introspective piece, with its brooding, repetitive motifs pulling listeners deeper into the album’s sonic maze. The album closes with “New Mantra,” a cathartic, meditative track that blends organic drones with subtle melodic fragments, creating a serene yet powerful conclusion.
With Phases, Stereocilia masterfully bridges electronic soundscapes and drone-infused psych, offering a captivating auditory experience that reflects both tension and release.
To coincide with the announcement, the first single from the album ‘Trust’ is out today on all streaming platforms. The video for ‘Trust’ was directed by John O’Carroll and can be viewed below. Pre-order ‘Phases’ over on Bandcamp today and receive ‘Trust’ as a free download.
