DateMonthYear, the eclectic and forward-thinking music experience from Hamilton, New Zealand, is proud to announce the release of stage two in a new work, called “The Exodus Suite”
The Exodus Suite’ Part 1 & 2 are a collection of five Soundscapes/ Ambient music pieces with attendant video interpretations. The music has been written and produced by DateMonthYear founder and mainstay Trevor Faville, mixed in America by Martin Porter, and mastered back in Hamilton by Andi Verse. Faville explains” the Exodus Suite is proving to a very rewarding creative experience not only in making Soundscape/Ambient/ Electronic music, but in the process of allowing directors’ creative freedom to interpret as they wish”
The first installment is called ‘Wind’ and is directed by Matty Thomas Taylor. It is live on the DateMonthYear YouTube channel from October 1st. The following videos will be going live on the first of each subsequent month. All five tracks will be available from February 2021 as a download from the DateMonthYear Bandcamp page- but will be available for streaming at the same time they are released on video.
The second instalment is called “Air “and is directed by longtime DateMonthYear associate Kathleen Christian, who has directed previous videos for the songs ‘Exodus’, ‘Numbers’ and ‘Haunted’. Her take on the piece “Air” is a surreal, intense, impressionistic experience, with a nod to the visual style of David Lynch. The music is influenced by Horror/Sci-Fi soundtracks, Musique Concrete, and is a challenging and hopefully disturbing listen.
