0 NEW SONG SIMPLE MINDS RELEASED TODAY!

It’s been a while, but here it is, a new Single from MetaQuorum!

Bit of a new venture for us as Simple Minds is a song rather than our usual instrumental Meld. The album in the works – Blue Cosmic Pie – is mainly songs, too.

Here’s one early review:

“Love it! I really like the wide panning with the bass and other keys. The jam at the end with the slap bass is super funky. All of these cool musical happenings, while having a much-needed conversation about current events, it’s a really great thing you’ve done.” Chris Longwood, SugarHill Recording Studios, TX, USA.

0 OUT OF THE SILENCE

Yes, I know, we’ve been quiet for a while… but… nothing can stop the music! Between the pandemic and earning a living, we’ve been beavering away at a new album: Blue Cosmic Pie.

It’s a bit of a new venture for us because this third album – unlike our other two mainly instrumental Meld – features mostly songs. Still with our unmistakable MetaQuorum top-notch flair, of course.

The first ‘slice of The Pie’ – a single called Simple Minds – is coming out on Bandcamp on Sunday, 9^th October.

With lyrics by our very own Dmitry Ermakov, Simple Minds is a protest song calling out current social apathy. Keys (Dmitry) recorded in North Pennines, UK and drums and percussion (Koos) in Friesland. Mixed in the UK and mastered in Texas.

Available to listen and buy on Bandcamp and lyrics video on YouTube and Instagram on Sunday 9^th October, and on all other streaming platforms by 4^th November (except Spotify. We’re boycotting them ‘cos the CEO creams money he’s off all us musicians to invest in artificial intelligence defence technology). Watch this space for links.

More to follow soon on the story behind the track, plus what else to expect out of the Blue Cosmic Pie album.
