The Lab and Noise Pop Festival 2025 present Byron Westbrook's Translucents (Shelter Press, 2024), in an expanded immersive, multi-channel audio configuration. Inspired by the color panels of abstract painter Blinky Palermo, Translucents explores the concept of "audio after-image". It presents a series of audio scenes, with the intention of imprinting on the listener's mind in order to influence the way each consecutive scene appears. Translucents is a play with memory, with presence, and with time, experimenting with a dynamic between perceiving presence in the space where one is listening vs the perception of an external space or place.
“Byron Westbrook’s Shelter Press debut is his most mesmerizing album to date – a set of electroacoustic pieces that advances the rough blueprints laid out by legends like Maryanne Amacher, Bernard Parmegiani and Luc Ferrari.. if you’re at all interested in electroacoustic music, ‘Translucents’ is just about as good as it gets.” (Boomkat)
