about

PURPLE is the third “space(s)” from the “color spaces” series by QUADRA.

WHAT ARE SPACES?
We like to use the word “space(s)” to describe being in the quadraphonic sound field as it is much different than a traditional listening experience. “Being in the sound field is like discovering new colors that one didn’t know existed”

WHAT IS THE COLOR SERIES?
The Color Series aims to break free from the cultural bias, social baggage, and preconceived notions that often come with naming music. In an ideal world, we wouldn't need to name what we do, but unfortunately, that's not the world we live in. Naming music/art often results in automatic assumptions and expectations, which we hope to avoid with the Color Series. The Color Series uses a nondescript concept like color to allow listeners to attach their own meaning or even no meaning at all. Now we’ve said to much…

WHAT IS PURPLE?
Recorded on March 30th, 2023
PURPLE is based on a 3/4 time signature where each player in charge of a beat in sort of a round robin fashion.

“I had been hearing this track in my head for months and it finally came out in its entirety. This is in memory/dedication to my mother who has Alzheimers and whose favorite color is PURPLE. To me it’s the feeling of a life lived and then a certain life force gone.“ J Soares

The music you hear on the recording was improvised in one take, without any preconceived ideas of what was going to unfold.
