1st Base Runner Shares the Clip For His Song "Dark Drive Through the Canyon"
Following a prolific string of 4 EP releases, all within a 2 year stretch, 1st Base Runner returns with his 5th EP "Night Stalker", and it's easily his darkest and most cinematic work yet. Ambient, experimental, and downright spine-chilling, this is the vital sound of an artist following his own muse with no compromise. Lock your doors and kill the lights before exploring this visceral collection.
Massive synths swallow the listener in this brilliant electronic release from Austin, Texas based producer and multi-instrumentalist Tim Husmann of the 1st Base Runner project. 'Night Stalker ' pulls you into a surreal landscape full of masterfully crafted tension, release, and longing. As a concept EP, it towers over other releases in unapologetic fashion.
As with his previous 4 releases, 1st Base Runner collaborated once again with artistic genius Matt Needle for cover artwork. Vinyl will be available shortly. Expect 1st Base Runner to turn heads at his SXSW showcase in 2023.
Our character remains stoic and unmoving in contrast to the alien city landscape of Long Beach, suspended as an observer of a destination only he can see. The eerie, pulsing electronic soundscape pulls him through a dark drive like a puppet on a string. Will he relent upon arrival? Ominous and other-worldly, 1st Base Runner looks unphased in the passenger seat as the sky changes around him and the city lights flicker to the pulsing music, as if foreshadowing a pending cataclysmic event. And yet, throughout the strange, dreamscape-like visual, there is an all-pervasive sense of peace and acceptance amidst the frenetic, almost alien surroundings.
