Description

Life is complicated, filled with everything wonderful, odd and unpredictable. It's also filled with mishaps, misunderstandings, insecurity and imperfections, so am I, and so is this music. It’s meant to be honest, a reflection of experience.

Debut Single Coming from Electronic Artist The Corner Hotel

October 5, 2020
A NEW SINGLE is on the way titled "In the Amber!" It's also the debut song from The Corner Hotel.

An early listen can be found on Bandcamp (exclusive), this track goes live on Spotify, Amazon, iTunes and more this October 23rd.

The Corner Hotel is the new musical identity of artist Corey Bryson. Born out of uncertainty and anxiety, in a fairly shitty time in our current history. The music reflects a more spirited nature with a future. Electronic rhythms, ambient textures with field-recorded landscapes driving the music forward having a distinctly soulful and sensitive impression.

Discography

From the Loading Dock To You

Various Artists

May 2019

Music/sounds/noise played, samples found, recorded, and changed but they all in some way, draw from the experiences I've had at the gallery in the last 8 years.

'Look at the Light' and 'Close Your Eyes...' were recorded during a lunch break, on the loading dock and I took the cover photo then as well.

'Swaying in the Breeze' was recorded while playing the piano inside the Karen Tam exhibition titled "With wings like clouds hung from the sky."

It's been a slice my friends (ahem...there is pizza in the image) and if you listen from start to finish this album is sure to take you on a journey.

Please enjoy!

Colour Me with that Translucency

Various Artists

June 2018

This album is a very thickly layered at times an all-encompassing wall of sound with brief reprieves, minimal moments and of course, a little humor.

Please listen to it as you would appreciate contemporary visual art in a gallery, there is a strong message here. I hope to play this live in complete darkness for a group someday.

The better your speakers the more you'll hear, i've really considered all elements with a very specific arrangement and depth. It felt more like creating a sculpture than a song with most tracks.

This album was composed, played and recorded all in one day. A moment of clarity as it were, almost as if time stopped for me. These songs just happened, and that doesn't happen often for me.

Since then I have been mastering the album during my lunch hours and having fun taking documenting photographs of the random spaces as seen here: www.flickr.com/photos/cerebrum/albums/72157670164819143

The cover art is shot the day that I finished the album (yesterday as I write) while on a ferry to Victoria. The paint finally soaked in.

Also, the day before I had my 4th finger broken, slammed between a 1/2ton truck door. Which was just an obstacle I suppose h...
Creating Quiet on a Noisy Planet

Various Artists

January 2018

This album, if I am to describe it, is a daily log of feelings and impressions. With the likeness of a photo album I'm using sound instead of pictures, it's a place that exists where a mistake will not and an intimate portrait of people living.

It's easy to get caught up in all the noise.

*All was recorded on my cell phone, yep...and mastering was minimal, just a few compressors and reverb.

A Warm Night

August 2013

After living on Vancouver Island for a year I wanted to express some of my initial impressions and a few nostalgic bits from the recent past. This album is a sampling of ideas and musical sketches and I hope you enjoy!

An album inspired by travel; places visited, feelings carried, impressions and experience. To me it was an another adventure, traveling in a sort of studio cosmography trying to translate it all into music and sound.

A multitude of different techniques and instruments used in this one, as it should be.

This album is very personal as it was written and recorded for my daughter, before she was born and a few tracks after. This is not and will never be for sale, it's just for her.

Created with love,
