Freedom To Spend

Michele Mercure’s Eye Chant marks the inaugural offering from Freedom To Spend. Freedom To Spend is concerned with autonomous anomalies produced by musicians working within and outside the limits of technology to create intimate art. By virtue of this, the music of Freedom to Spend resonates across a broad sound spectrum, but thrives without rigid regulation.

Filmmaker Jason Evans explores the patterns and processes behind Mercure’s meditations on sound, collapsing the timeline of Eye Chant with his vignette, michele prepares.

Syrinx - Tumblers From The Vault

Syrinx’s path veered from the dominant modes of ‘70s subculture, their version of chamber pop hybridized with wild, whimsical electronic experimentation charting new territory in the under and overground.

Formed by composer John Mills-Cockell after the dissolution of Intersystems, Syrinx’s two adventurous albums, Syrinx (Self-Titled) and Long Lost Relatives, endorsed the poetic potential of the avant-garde, subverting a turn of the ‘60s trend toward technological pageantry.

Tumblers From The Vault presents these two albums alongside the trio’s unheard music, revisiting the Syrinx story and sharing their memorable, mind-bending melodies.
