about

A celebration of sound and variety, inspired by the myriad sonic experiences on Thollem's life long travels. "Thollem is a modern griot who has absorbed sounds from every place he has visited.”
- William Parker from Conversations II (Rogue Art)

Growing up in the San Francisco Bay Area, Thollem was exposed
to the music of an incredible array of communities that influenced
his development as a musician and person including cultures with
roots from East Africa, Japan, China, Persia, Latin America, Ireland,
Indonesia, Vietnam, Russia and The Balkans, as well as Jazz, Blues,
Punk, Country, along side his classical piano training and the Avant
Garde. He has spent much of his adult life touring throughout N.
America and Europe. Electric Confluence integrates the myriad
musical sounds and approaches he has been privileged to
experience and study.

Confluences are the meeting points where chemical, genetic and
conceptual information from different sources interchange, evolving
new creations and perspectives. Thollem has spent his life in these cultural crossroads, in a perpetual state of curiosity and appreciation.

This is the third in a series exploring one instrument as a collaborative partner. All tracks were recorded live, no overdubbing, exclusively on a Korg Wavestate, a brand new instrument in 2020.

"His omnivorous interest in styles and format is dizzying...gliding all over the map in pursuit of whatever next idea interests him. What we’re left with is a record full of surprises that both engages and challenges the ears." - Marc Masters, Bandcamp
