DESCRIPTION:
88Nine's Maegan Eli and Amelinda Burich talk to Jon Mueller about his new project INITIATION and his performance at Eaux Claires

The world premier of INITIATION will take place on July 17th at Eaux Claires.

INITIATION is the new record from Jon Mueller. Written and recorded over the winter months of 2014, using four bass drums, voice, and bells, the compositions reference ritual, trance and origins of music at a hypnotic and rhythmic bpm. This record, however, is not available on an LP, CD, DVD, or even digital format. Instead, the recorded compositions will only be presented during venue-based events incorporating projected video (Chris Hefner) and live dance (Dawn Springer). In essence, each performance venue becomes a discreet, non-reproducible media format. INITIATION is intended as an exclusive live experience; a new way of living inside a record.
