Dm Stith - Heavy Ghost Appendices





DM Stith's contradictory album title Heavy Ghost prepares the listener for what's to come. His sound is dissonant and haunting yet entices and soothes.
Coming from the most musical of families: his father a wind ensemble director; his grandfather Cornell University's professor emeritus and his mother a pianist; Heavy Ghost acknowledges the elephant in the room that was his retreat into painting as a child followed by a career in graphic design. Perhaps eventually he felt had to release the burden of his musical talents.
Heavy Ghost Appendices revisits, remixes and reinterprets the original album released by Asthmatic Kitty Records.
