TAPE WIZARD | DOCUMENTARY BY KILIAN VIDOUREK

  • In the fall of 2019 Notre Dame student Kilian Vidourek reached out to me about making a mini documentary about me and my work as Amulets. Funded by a grant from his school, KIlian flew out to Portland and followed me around for the week leading up to my album release show for "Between Distant and Remote". This experience was really fascinating for both of us and I think he did a great job capturing me in my element. Since its release Tape Wizard has been played at the Bellingham Music Film Festival, Bolton International Film Festival, Portland Film Festival, Mid America Film Festival, and The Notre Dame Student Film Festival to name a few.

      I have delved into many instruments over the years. Your channel inspired me to explore analog tape more. I am actively putting together a suitcase of drone that will be a permanent set of gear to accompany my other instruments. It won’t be like yours that is perpetual in additions and subtractions of analog gear. Thank you for your amazing musical thoughts and creations. I wish you continued success.

      Michael, I agree %100 I've listen to this emotion in music since I can remember and it has the reverse effect, and my favorite tracks tend to be the ones that make me cry and I truly believe that part of the happiness I get from it is because your like " the person that wrote this feels just like me, I'm not broken or alone because listen to all these seemingly normal , successful even sad bastards all over the globe. No I don't wanna die, no I don't want to shit the whole world out. I want to be alive and live in my emotions when they rise up inside of me. And that experience ends in joy everytime. Whaah! Rant over 😮‍💨😁🥳
      Side bar: HELLO AMULETS 👋😅 I'm m Brian and I hope I run into you someday so I can tell you in person how much I love what you do, I'm just across the i-5 bridge in Vancouver right in the heart of downtown!
