Is Dancegaze a thing? Does it have a proper genre name?

If not, I feel like we need to create it.

Check out the On the Fringes of Sound site and follow for reviews of independent experimental, ambient, noise, and other music that falls well outside the mainstream

Incredibly appreciative for the review of In Ourselves by @fringesofsound.bsky.social. Two quotes that make me feel great and understood:
"Dynamically speaking, the album is absolutely incredible."
"It makes for such a wonderful experience, one that feels introspective but not overly severe."

In Ourselves, by Barry Parma-Rogers 7 track album

Shamelessly jumping on the #BandcampFriday bandwagon and sharing my debut album, In Ourselves, again: barryparmarogers.bandcamp.com/album/in-our...

I'm always impressed with how effortless Music for 18 Musicians sounds, despite it being an absolute challenge to play.

A-Side Ambient

Some great #ambient #Spotify #playlists now featuring IV from In Ourselves (playlists also on Apple Music and other platforms):

A-side Ambient open.spotify.com/playlist/6CH...
Atmospheric Nights: open.spotify.com/playlist/2py...
Ambient Darkness: open.spotify.com/playlist/7ey...

Some quotes:
"The artwork and drone composition are just beautiful"

"A really well produced slice of gently quivering and shimmering ambient music that floats serenely through the speakers"

"Fine sound design and some really lovely parts."

"Best of luck for the release, hope it goes well! :)"

#MusicianTips: #2 Despite being wary, I've found #SubmitHub to be an incredibly positive and useful experience. Even with my music not exactly fitting within current #ambient or #drone trends, I've been able to reach relevant curators and received positive and constructive feedback from the rest.

Should also say, loving Light Bringer from the #redrising series!

It was primarily created live throughout 2025, improvising and composing around self-made analog and electronic recordings using modular systems.

My debut album, 'In Ourselves', is out today. It expresses the many aspects of my personality and self, capturing the things I see when I look inwards, articulating how precision and abstraction, noise and emotion, can balance and exist in harmony and disharmony to create a larger, cohesive whole.

1/3

A man, Barry Parma-Rogers, staring into a thin vertical mirror that is part of an art installation outdoors in a built up, city area with lights that look like icicles and a bright blue sky reflecting in the mirror with the man.

Tip for #musicians who hate taking #promophotos: Take two friends out for a day, wander around London, occasionally stumble across an artistic location and have a laugh as people wonder why you're standing still staring at a mirror. Probably works wherever you live if London isn't available to you.

Less is more, I find, sometimes. Start with a simple idea on VCV Rack with a self-recorded loop to deconstruct and explore slowly. It helps me feel the music the way I do with physical instruments and hardware.

I'm constantly amazed at the quality and variety of modules available in VCV Rack. Hooking up my midi controllers and faders has been a game changer for how I create music with it.

Wake I, is now out on all streaming services and available to download from Bandcamp, the first in a series of meditations on the various states of waking.

#Ambient #Drone #Loops #MusicSky #Alarm #WakeI

A friend recently asked for a short piece of music to wake up to. I liked the idea so much I turned it into a full song exploring one of the many states of waking and easing into consciousness.

#introduction I'm a composer and multi-instrumentalist focused on exploring the intersection of precise #composition, subtle #melody and improvisational #noise.

Or I make #DroneNoise sound nice. Take your pick.

I’m terrible at social media but figured Bluesky would be a welcoming place to start.
