This week's PBS Feature Album is All Things Shining from Rings Around Saturn.
It would be insufficient to call Rory McPike prolific: it does a disservice to the depth and breadth of his oeuvre as Rings Around Saturn, Cactus Head, Bleekman, 2200, Dan White, and as one half of Turner St Sound. His work can be broken into a litany of different genres, but at the heart of it all lies an endlessly explorative spirit with a restless desire for expression. This impulse spans his diverse body of work and all the different facets of his musical practice and shines through on his latest LP.
All Things Shining touches on ambient, electroacoustic studies and filmic/VGM composition, but outside of these references, it stands as a beautiful suite of songs and a testament to the power of the creative impulse.
Tune in all this week to hear tracks from All Things Shining, and PBS Members have the chance to win a copy of the album on vinyl, simply email your name and membership number to before midnight Sunday September 24. Please note that winners will need to pick up the LP from our Collingwood Studios.
