about

Composed, performed and produced by David Donohoe
between 2015 and 2021.

Mastered by Stephan Mathieu at Schwebung Mastering.
Produced with the generous support of the Arts Council /
An Chomhairle Ealaíon. Significant composition and recording was undertaken while on residency at Sirius Arts Centre, Cobh 2019.

Through its palette of DAXA-interfaced DX7, piano, gongs, cymbals, bells, singing bowls and spectral processing, W/HERE (pronounced as 'wheer') is rooted in ideas of place and non-place. Compositions and recordings were made in various spaces over an extended period. These components were then gathered and arranged as a suite of nine parts, integrated yet interchangeable – precarious and contingent.

released June 3, 2022

W/HERE emerged from a long germination period and some of its elements have previously appeared in installation and live performance, notably 'End.' with Eamonn Doyle and Niall Sweeney at Espace Van Gogh, Les Rencontres D’Arles, 2016; 'DAXA: Half Crystallised But Still Breathing' as part of Dennis McNulty’s TTOPOLOGY at Visual Carlow, 2018; and 'MADE IN DUBLIN' with Eamonn Doyle, Niall Sweeney and Kevin Barry at Fundación MAPFRE Madrid and the RHA Dublin, St. Patrick’s Festival, 2019.

This work utilises DAXA, a translator/catalyst for the Yamaha DX7 synthesizer, designed and implemented by Dennis McNulty in collaboration with David Donohoe.

Inventions & Canons
by Sean Clancy

supported by 24 fans who also own “W/HERE”

Blurring the division between found sound and music, I love the way Look At That One evolves from seaside sussuration into an endless drone. Like the shoreline at incoming tide, hard to tell where one texture ends and the other begins. The final track's nagging guitar chords push at the senses with a firm insistence that carries the music onward yet remains fixed, turning endlessly without moving. A quiet, gentle odyssey.
