Jeremiah Chiu
In Electric Time
PRE-ORDER LIVE NOW for Vinyl LP edition
Available now, by popular demand... We are happy to open preorders for Jeremiah Chiu's spontaneous summer hit record In Electric Time – a smoking suite of organic electronic music that was conceptualized, recorded, and released all in a very short span of time starting just 4 months ago (June 2023).
Chiu's US tour with Mary Lattimore is at full bore, and the original limited edition cassette is damn-near sold out (get one of the last 20 copies if you can!), AND we've been hearing all the calls for a vinyl edition of this one... So we just couldn't resist...
We are offering a black vinyl version and also a limited edition *Modular Mint* color vinyl version, both of which are 140g vinyl (pressed by Pallas in Germany) and come inside a heavyweight reverse board jacket with IARC obi strip and dome-patterned inner-sleeve. Currently we're estimating the vinyl will ship by February 1st.
!!! order now via our Bandcamp page !!!
Jeremiah Chiu's "Rococco Rondo"
In Session at VSM Los Angeles
short film by Burkie
On June 29th, 2023, Chiu walked into the Vintage Synthesizer Museum (VSM) in Highland Park, Los Angeles, with no plan more specific than “let’s fire this stuff up and see what happens.” After just two days of tracking and two days of editing, Chiu emerged with In Electric Time, an album of intuitive organic electronic music released by IARC (cassette/digital) on September 29th, 2023.
One of the things Chiu decided to do on day 1 of the In Electric Time session was deconstruct and recreate a version of The Ghostwriters' 1986 tune "Rococo Rondo."
This short film by Burkie gives a candid glimpse into that session, where Chiu (alongside VSM founder Lance Hill and engineer Ben Lumsdaine) listens, deciphers, and goes into a deep gear zone to program "Rococco Rondo" for performance on the museum/studio's extensive collection of vintage synths.
