about

Tumbleweed is the more meditative companion to my 2021 album Oblivion Rhythms Revisited, released on Moon Glyph. Recorded around the same time, but a little more rhythmless. Driftier sonics from the Universal Window.

From Unifactor: Fresh off of his incredible Oblivion Rhythms Revisited LP on Moon Glyph, Tumbleweed is another window in on Mark Tester's synthesis. Intricate but never overwrought, the pieces here range from playful, melodic miniatures to looming drones, fading in and out of compositional detail and turbulent dream states. Synth sequences, woodwind sounds, and fields of noise all cohabitate on Tumbleweed, joining Tester's releases on Astral Spirits, his own label Medium Sound, and collaborations with the Crazy Doberman crew as essential pieces of a larger picture.

To Live & Die In Space & Time
by Lynn Avery & Cole Pulice

supported by 6 fans who also own “Tumbleweed”

4 peaceful jazz vignettes. Belt of Venus is aquamarine, with a slow, tidal energy as dignified as the sea. The aptly named plantwood is budding, emergent as flowers on dewy moss in the forest. Stained Glass Sauna has a smoky, mountain resonance, while the Sunken Cabin emerges slowly from dust-mote stillness to tortured but deliberating peaks. The whole thing is bursting with character.
