Memoryhouse – The Slideshow Effect

Wednesday, April 4th, 2012

Memoryhouse

The new album from Ontario’s Memoryhouse is called The Slideshow Effect and its title speaks to what hasn’t changed: their continuing interest in the synthesis of the aural and the visual. It refers to the photographic / cinematic technique of zooming and panning to animate still images, often used in documentary film making to give movement to archival photographs. The 10-track album, produced by Abeele, with assistance from friend, collaborator, and occasional Memoryhouse bassist Barzin Hassani Rad, finds Memoryhouse heading toward a new clarity in composition as well as sound; a more organic direction for artists who are, in their own words, transitioning from a “bedroom recording project” into a fully realized band. Nouvion’s voice has never been more present than on the new album, which finds her stepping away from Memoryhouse’s past reverbed sound in favor of a more upfront, and intimate vocal approach.

Loud Rock Department

Friday, February 13th, 2009

Greeting Fusionites,

This is Andrea, your Music Director. I regret to inform you that Caroline Restiaux is no longer with CSCR Fusion Radio. We wish her the best in all her future endeavors; I can personally assure anyone that she will be a great addition to any team she decided to join.

On that note I would like to inform you that I will be gladly taking over the Loud Rock department at Fusion Radio. For those of you that do not know me already, I am the current Music Director at CSCR and I have been with the station for a bit more than three years. I also host my very own Metal Show called Latin Distortion, which has been around for almost two years.

Email me your questions/comments at hardrock@fusionradio.ca

-Stay Metal-
Andrea
