about

Oxalis Triangularis stems from the resilience of artists to continue to create through a global pandemic. It is a testament to the flexibility and creativity possible through electroacoustic composition. Developed through a call for scores in the summer of 2020, Oxalis Triangularis (referring to a purple “false shamrock” whose scientific name is Oxalis Triangularis due to its triangle-like leaves) features 33 new works written specifically to be recorded in a fully remote setting. Over the course of three albums Apply Triangle not only showcases the innovative techniques of 33 living composers but also highlights the embodied cultural nuances inherent in each composer's style.

The music on "Oxalis Triangularis: Vol. 2" showcases an incredible depth of influence and variety within the confines of our instrumentation coupled with the endless possibilities of electronic processing. Relentless industrialism, booming 808 beats, circuit-bent mayhem and Bosche-esque maximalism highlight the extreme worlds these composers created for us to explore and discover, all woven together with interluding improvisations that challenged us to reflect on the standstill times these works were created in.

Looking back on the process of bringing these works to life, I am so grateful for the time taken and the time received to grow with this music. Some of these recordings were made to be read and recorded in one day, whereas others took months to track all of the parts, make precise edits and allow time for our brains to breathe a bit before we could start on the next one. There were many times in our nearly four year long journey where it all felt stagnant and we didn’t know what to do next or what deadlines were approaching. Other times, we were locked into our flow and felt so excited for what the next piece held. When the time finally came to structure these albums and tell this story, these moments of highs and lows, rapid movement and complete stillness, still felt present as the pieces connected and began to relate to one another in ways we never imagined.

Thank you to all of the composers who dedicated their time and talents to this music and advising us every step of the way. Thank you to my two friends, Yoshi and Jixue, for seeing this idea through and committing to our music.

–Tyler Neidermayer
