I’m home from work early and pleased to release my new tune for this week, Friday Feeling. It’s a dancy little number for you weekend pleasures and features soprano saxophone melodies, harmonized by sequencers, and big electronic beats. It’s available on Bandcamp for a buck, like most of my tunes. Listening is free but purchases […]

New Tune — Ataraxia
posted by Andrew D Meyer
This Friday’s tune is a bit different from the things I’ve been releasing lately. It’s a darker sort of mood tune, as opposed to the big dancy sort of beats I’ve been putting out lately. I’ve been really digging the music of trumpeter/composer Jon Hassell lately and wanted to dabble a bit in that sonic […]
New Tune — Southern Cross
posted by Andrew D Meyer
Here’s the next tune in my Friday releases series. I’m doing a new one each week. This one is full of soprano saxophones, synthesizers, and spacey electronic beats. What’s not to love?
New Tune — Mindstream
posted by Andrew D Meyer
Mindstream is built around a slowed down montuno, played on the vibraphone, with a heavy dub beat and a haunting soprano saxophone melody. There’s a brief moment of blisteringly quick bass clarinet and a spacey groove with soprano solo to the end.
Kaleidoscope EP
posted by Andrew D Meyer
Yesterday I released three new tunes on an EP called Kaleidoscope. They’re meant to be groovy little things that you can put in your pocket and walk around with.

Today I’m releasing a new work that I’ve written for soprano saxophone, bass clarinet, vibraphone, marimba, piano, and drums called Castile Rose. A work of unrelenting optimism, Castile Rose is loosely inspired by John Steinbeck’s novella, Tortilla Flat, where Danny and the paisanos pass many an afternoon on Danny’s porch, under the castile rose bush. […]

Here are some highlights, click the links for the full articles: “Andrew D. Meyer evokes a circular hypnotic concept on the psychedelic odes of “Goa Variations”.

Other Peoples’ Music
posted by Andrew D Meyer
In addition to my own recent release, Goa Variations, I’ve recently had the great pleasure of recording on two albums with close friends and collaborators. The first is an album of sprawling improvisations pinned together by the compositions of Jake Eddy, titled Awake! Jake is the “Eddy” in the Eddy/Meyer Trio, and we’ve worked together a lot over the […]
Goa Variations official release
posted by Andrew D Meyer
I’m very pleased to announce that today is the official release of my album, “Goa Variations.” It’s a bit weird to announce a release on a Saturday but given the circumstances, It’s not like anyone has anywhere else to be! This music is my own blend of psychedelic minimalism and I hope you’ll give it […]
