The album cover is white with text centered at the top that reads “Timothy Fairless, Keep Talking to Me, de6073.” The center features a photograph of magnetic audio tape in a large pile on the floor, the center juts up to an almost unnatural point and the edges are frayed out in all directions.

Thanks so much for this!

AMN Reviews: Timothy Fairless – Keep Talking to Me (2025; Dragon’s Eye Recordings) Australia’s Timothy Fairless uses a generative sound installation to create what is heard on Keep Talking to Me. This makes the album interesting in both a procedural and a substantive manner…

First review of 𝙆𝙚𝙚𝙥 𝙏𝙖𝙡𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙤 𝙈𝙚 from @avantmusicnews.bsky.social is in!

"…an investigation of transformation. It illustrates how meaning changes through mediums of communication to take on interpretations that were likely unintended by the creator."

Artist Mark du Potiers wears his creation (called “Master”). This costume obscures his face with many strands of audio tape. He wears a white shirt. The background is a gradient of pinks and oranges.

Headphone Commute has the scoop on my video for “Tullamarine”.

Timothy Fairless hunches over a bamboo desk. He wears a teal jacket, and gently grips the front edge of the desk. The background is watermelon-pink.

My new album, 𝙆𝙚𝙚𝙥 𝙏𝙖𝙡𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙤 𝙈𝙚, will be out on June 20 on @dragonseyerecordings.com. The album unravels the complexities of communication and examines the fragile interplay between language, technology, and understanding.

Superposition is 2 years old today. Incidentally, right now this is my most recent solo release. Probably changing that soon. 😉

🎥 I composed the score for a feature film that’s out now - Horizon One, or “1” in Australia. It stars Dan Ewing, and follows his character’s quest for redemption while also being hunted by aliens. But much more importantly, it’s a parable for a planet sick with people, returning to a natural state.

Timothy Fairless sits on a teal chair, and rests his head on a bamboo desk with white legs. He grips the front on the desk gently and is staring straight at the camera. The background is bright watermelon-pink. The photo is framed by a lightened and desaturated version of the photograph, with record label Dragon’s Eye triangular logo at the bottom, the title “Timothy Fairless” at the top, “New Artist” on the left and “2025” on the right.

I’m honored and thrilled to have joined the @dragonseyerecordings.com roster for a release this year. This is a label that champions values I care about through releasing music by incredibly diverse artists.

Sometimes wonder if I could give it up. But after giving up cigarettes (years ago) and sugar - what’s left to enjoy?

I wonder the crossover between this and people who are compelled to absorb enormous quantities of caffeine within 30 minutes of waking? I’m dead centre on that Venn diagram. But disrupt the flow of coffee and it all falls apart.

Neon Remixed, by Ghostwoods 8 track album

Ghostwoods approached me to remix a song from their last album. I had no rules; just a generous but firm deadline. And the result is available now here: ghostwoods4000.bandcamp.com/album/neon-r...

I had a blast over Christmas and New Years doing a residency at GLOR Project Space in Nambour, that culminated in a showing of new sound work made entirely on the Sunshine Coast.

Person in black T-shirt holding a set of finger cymbals, lit by pink spotlights, foregrounded by an electronic keyboard.

30 years of composing, performing, and producing music has resulted in an expert ability to play finger cymbals for 10 consecutive minutes. Had a wonderful time performing Warring States for Mark du Potiers’ exhibition at BEMAC.
