  • f5point6 – Clinical Trials – See Blue Audio

    I have been listening to Laurie Anderson’s Norton lecture series filled with fascination and meaning, questioning the nature of sound and how it communicates with the everyday experiences of interaction and travel and surroundings. And about the peeling back on musical convention to reveal answers inherent without the use of melody to convey substance. And…

  • f5point6 – A Matter of Light and Depth – See Blue Audio

    People come. People go. In the same direction, in opposite directions with different intentions. Those moments occupying the spaces in-between time and are the ones seeking out something fantastical as evidenced here. R.Cleveland Aaron’s journey into the expanse relies on copious investigations into the now and an escape to further beyond. His music can be…

  • f5point6 – The Shuttle Leaves at Midnight – See Blue Audio

    Art for me is sometimes about what happens next. Not so much what you see in a given moment captured but what story unfolds in the next frame. The unseen, the unknown. Whether that is getting lost inside a conceived picture or photograph or being subsumed by pieces of music it remains about the excitement…

  • f5point6 – KaleidoSound: Time, Shape & Space Vol. 2 – See Blue Audio

    The completing piece of R.Cleveland Aaron’s journey into the jigsaw of sound doesn’t feel like a conclusion. More like an old friend departing to find something else to do. I will miss these oddly tempting escapes into unknown territory as you never know who, what or where is going to happen or occur next in…

  • f5point6 – KaleidoSound Time, Shape & Space Vol. 1 – See Blue Audio

    Listening to KaleidoSound is like watching time and space unravel into the ether of expectation. A strangely beguiling yet wonderful explanation of the fusion of particles floating, charging throughout the airwaves as elements reach into the darkness, grasping at the light, acting very much like the damaged reflection of this year. That holy/ unholy alliance…

  • f5point6 – KaleidoSound: Time, Space & Frequencies Vol. 2 – See Blue Audio

    I was listening to a discussion on the nature of Art and it was said that artists reflect the times around them. I think creators of note do, while others repeat the past under the guise of authenticity. I want to listen to music that informs emotionally, sonically and politically – the personal is political,…

  • f5point6 – KaleidoSound: Time, Space & Frequencies Vol. 1 – See Blue Audio

    Following hot on the heels of R. Cleveland Aaron’s astute debut is this expansion of terrain moving through time and motion in brisk, provocative fashion. As with the former collection of music these soundscapes charge your mind with a series of images creating imaginary solutions to electric situations. And again this can be equally unsettling,…

  • R.Cleveland Aaron (f5point6) Q&A

    Welcome to Magazine Sixty, Cleveland. Can we begin by asking what attracted you to creating more ambient sounds rather than the conventional structures of drums and song? Do you feel that you can say more about something without the use of words? I have always been into sound as an inspiration for the way I…

  • KaleidoSound: An Introduction by f5point6 – See Blue Audio

    Hit play and R. Cleveland Aaron’s magical notation invigorates what you will hear as worlds collide and gently explode. The ambience at work here is not the breathy, washing over you in the background kind, but is fully engaging in strange and remarkably exciting ways. Otherworldly melodies are played with at times, sometimes beautiful notes…
