Collin Thomas – The Gauze Eyed Gaze Of Bracketed Air

Collin Thomas’s latest release, The Gauze Eyed Gaze Of Bracketed Air, is a monumental exploration into the intricate intersections of sound, memory, and emotion. With over four hours of immersive music, this album challenges listeners to engage deeply with its contemplative narrative, rooted in the experience of caring for someone with dementia. Drawing influences from avant-garde giants like Morton Feldman and John Cage, Thomas crafts a sonic landscape that is both haunting and meditative.

The album’s conceptual foundation is deeply personal and resonates through every track. The repetitive nature of the compositions mirrors the cyclical patterns of memory loss, while unexpected shifts in tone and texture reflect the unpredictable nature of living with dementia. Tracks like “Bracketed Air I” and “The Gauze Eyed Gaze” stand out, encapsulating the album’s essence of tension and release, familiarity and alienation.

Produced solely by Thomas in Kansas City, the album is a testament to his meticulous craftsmanship and dedication to pushing the boundaries of ambient and electroacoustic music. As a writer, I found this album to be an emotional and thought-provoking journey that demands attention and patience from its listeners.

For those willing to dive into its depths, The Gauze Eyed Gaze Of Bracketed Air offers a rich and rewarding experience, making it a must-listen for fans of experimental music. Follow Collin Thomas online to stay updated on his future releases—you won’t want to miss what’s next.
