New #review today: "#MeredithBates is back with a follow-up to her sprawling Tesseract album from 2023, and she’s showing no signs of abandoning her quest for lengthy soundscapes. The Observer Effect is another double CD set packed to the brim with slow-moving tone poems constructed with her own violin, viola, field recordings, and electronics." #ExposeOnline #ElectroAcousticMusic #ExperimentalMusic http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/meredith-bates-the-obsever-effect-books-i-ii-2.html

New review today: "#MeredithBates is a violinist from Vancouver BC, but the mysteries this solo album holds are almost anything other than what might be expected. One can hear a kaleidoscopic array of processed violin sounds, found sound fragments, and electronics all at work at once, the overall result is more of an ambient immersive experience, with cathartic textures and odd sonic structures intertwining in the fabric of this sound collage." #ExposeOnline #AmbientMusic http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/meredith-bates-tesseract-3.html
