Watch the visualizer for “Slightly, Virtually” via the YouTube player below:
New album by Muffins co-founder Dave Newhouse, “Automatic Writing,” clocking in at over 45 minutes, it is a high intensity, big band mix of Canterbury, RIO, and Jazz Fusion, along with the Muffinesque melodies you’ve come to expect from Newhouse.
“Someone asked me recently if I thought my music has changed since the Muffin days, and I really don’t think it has. To my ears, I’m still making exactly the same music I made back in 1970 when I had a Sears 2-track reel-to-reel tape recorder. a low-fi mic, and a spinet piano in my bedroom at my parents’ house. Those same Muses are still with me (thank heavens), and I’m still just writing the music they whisper in my ear. And I’ll continue to make this Dave Newhouse music (whatever the heck THAT is) for as long as those Muses stick around.” – Dave states
