This spirited album is out today and available as a lush LP and to stream/download. Shape of the Moon is the California based duo of Benjamin Burke and Bear Glass that explores existential headspaces beyond mundane frames of thought. Following streams of consciousness that contemplate the stardust that forms us to the very first human sound that reverberated through a cave, Shape of the Moon intertwines language and music into ambient dream-weaving narratives. Burke drapes vivid vocal narration over deeply immersive textures and melodies conjured up by Glass on Buchla, bass and sitar, painting peaks and valleys that live score the storytelling. The duo tread their own path fusing poetry with undulating electroacoustic instrumentals, arriving at meditative and ASMR territories that draw inspiration from ambient and electronica. Often joined on stage by guest musicians playing anything from Rhodes, percussion, jaw harp and saxophone, the recordings edge towards blues and spiritual jazz. Head over to the Marionette Bandcamp page to listen to the album and order your physical or digital copy - also available through our reliable network of record stores that keep the label alive. Worldwide physical distribution courtesy of the fine folk at @honestjonsrecords with limited copies via Morr Music. Lend your ears and give this album a spin, it’s a special one ♾️ by @bear__glass

Shape of the Moon present their debut album When the Land is Laid Bare for Marionette’s 30th title, channeling an inquisitive yet playful state of mind that marvels at the mysteries of the universe. Today we share the second single No Need to Wait / This is Time ahead of the album release on June 5, where the duo introspectively contemplate the stardust that forms us ✨ follow link in bio to listen/preorder 🙏🏻 Benjamin Burke is a poet, writer, performer, and visual artist who spends his time lending a hand to unusual artistic expeditions around the world. Most recently, he helped to launch Dhun and Dhun School, a humanist eco-township and progressive education center on a 500 acre biopreserve in Rajasthan, India. He has written and performed countless unusual shows, experimenting widely and, through that, witnessing firsthand what makes ideas resonate for his audiences. This work evolved over time into an approach he refers to as Applied Poetics which he employs to help communities set intentions, scientists present their findings, and humanitarian organizations find their footing. Bear Glass is a sound artist, multi-instrumentalist, music teacher, live sound engineer, and founding member of Mobius Acoustics who build innovative sound systems and host live performances and immersive drone bath sessions on the West Coast. Glass is involved in various collaborative projects with a couple of releases under different pseudonyms as well as a solo tape featuring a track with prolific producer Carlos Niño. For most of the year, Glass lives sustainably off-grid with his family on a plot of land outside Joshua Tree, a mini utopia famous for his well curated private campouts and artist residencies. Wide skies, magnificent climates, and being surrounded by the love of family and friends inform Bear’s musical output and artistic practice. We’ll be celebrating the album launch with a special gathering at Terraform in Los Angeles on May 30 featuring a quad listening environment by @mobius_acoustics where Shape of the Moon will perform alongside Khôra, @_j.db_ , and myself on opening/closing duties.

Really happy to announce the 30th title on Marionette presenting the debut album by Shape of the Moon, the California based duo of Benjamin Burke and Bear Glass. When the land is laid bare forms a collection of recordings composed of Burke reciting his introspective poems and Glass improvising gripping modular synth and string patterns. The pieces on the album consist of excerpts from live outdoor performances under the night sky in the Mojave desert as well as sessions in Glass’s off-grid solar powered studio. Burke drapes vivid vocal narration over deeply immersive textures and melodies conjured up by Glass on Buchla, bass and sitar, painting peaks and valleys that live score the storytelling. The duo tread their own path fusing poetry with undulating electroacoustic instrumentals, arriving at meditative and ASMR territories that draw inspiration from ambient and electronica. Available to pre-order now (LP/download) through the link in bio with the first single Safe and Sound following streams of consciousness that intertwine language and music into ambient dream-weaving narratives. Album to be released on June 5 and we’ll be celebrating the week prior with a Marionette showcase in Los Angeles with special live performances (SOTM, Khôra, jdB) and I’ll be spinning some records as well!

While ironing out my next release I wanted to share some images related to it. @bear__glass was one of the first people I met in the music scene as I transferred among different bands and lived life on the road. We interacted with several of the same people. These days his sound has morphed from collective multi instrumental to electronic with a dose of drone. He currently resides off the radar in the deserts of Southern California. taken in Portland, Oregon by @bear__glass
