about

This collection was recorded over a year of isolation, reflection and repair. It is inspired by welcome extra time at home with our impossibly magical dog Winston in his last year, my unstoppable, incredible wife and all the broken dusty old gear I finally got around to repairing. Recorded primarily to tape on my treasured Tascam 388 these tunes employ the usual (but ever-changing) arsenal of vintage analog synths and fx. Expanding on previous Voice of Saturn releases saxophone, guitar and bass are added into the mix - even some live drumming. I hope to convey a sense of optimism, forward momentum and love with this music.

Always with my heroes in mind but looking for new sounds and a better future for all of us!

For Winston and Alicia.

"Hailing from Charlottesville, Virginia, Voice of Saturn is the alias of electronic musician and Personal Bandana man, Travis Thatcher. Recorded during lockdown, the 12 tracks here are inevitably freighted with a mixture of complex emotions, heightened by knowing that Thatcher recorded them with his recently departed family dog never far from his side. The chunky 'Nachtmahren' has a resolute, chirpy optimism that you can't help but tap a foot along to, while 'Winston', named after Thatcher's faithful canine assistant, is both mournfully reflective and surprisingly celebratory." - Electronic Sound Magazine.
