(PR) Portland, Oregon-based producer, musician, and software designer, Leigh Marble, creator of the Lowender plug-in, a subharmonic synthesizer (aka "Boom Box"), is celebrating the release of "Twister", a collection of songs remixed from his critically-lauded sophomore full-length, "Red Tornado"."Much as Portland's acoustic community shies away from the digitized crowd, those peculiar obsessions borne from bedroom strumming or programming aren't so terribly different," says Portland, Oregon¹s alternative weekly on local indie-rocker Leigh Marble and his new album, "Twister".
Portland¹s other alternative weekly, The Mercury, said, "Heavy doses of dub permeate the mix, with Marble's wavering vocals drowning spookily in and out of balance," of Marble¹s "Twister".
Featuring "Salt In the Wound", "On Your Way", "Strip the Bed", "Fast & Loose", "Lucky Bastards", and "Gave It All" from "Red Tornado", "Twister" brings both Northwest and international mixing engineers together: Urbex, Mission Creep, Teledubgnosis, and Leigh Marble¹s studio alias, Dr. Marble.
The track listing:
1. Salt In The Wound - (Alabaster Variation) - Urbex
2. On Your Way - (Math Lab Remix) - Dr. Marble
3. Strip The Bed - (One Eyed Mix) - Mission Creep
4. Fast & Loose - (live bootleg 1966) - Mission Creep
5. Lucky Bastards - (King County Jail Dub) - Teledubgnosis
6. Gave It All - (Chamber Dub Remix) - Dr. Marble
"I'd like 'Twister' to alter people's perception of Leigh Marble the musician. I want to break out the pigeonhole of Œsinger/songwriter solo artist playing acoustic guitar.¹ For the 'solo artists' I like, when you see a show or listen to an album, there's actually some kind of band, or some interesting sonic stuff happening with the production."
