Nate Mercereau presents Fantastic Thoughts with Carlos Niño & Austin Williamson

Nate Mercereau presents Fantastic Thoughts with Carlos Niño & Austin Williamson — Music / New Age at Three Top Lounge, Chicago.

Complementing an already dizzying catalogue of solo releases,collaborations, and production/writing/instrumentation credits,FantasticThoughtsis Nate Mercereau's clarion call. The sound of a thousand damsbreaking simultaneously. A hootin' and hollering tantric affair that daresthe listener, , "rdquo" -> What if youdid?'" What if you sang out with a resounding,heart-forward, 'YES!'" --- sang it with your whole chest? If the beat poetsabided by the maxim , "rdquo" -> first thought, best thought,"Fantastic Thoughtsstakes a claim on the plain of imaginary whereeverythought is best (yes,fantastic, even). The resultant record is, without fail, maximalist---overflowing with ideas, varied influence, hairpin turns, and recursiveprocesses---but it is also wildly (one might even say transgressively)sincere, and not infrequently vulnerable. From the first proggy breakdownof , "rdquo" -> There's Something Here ..." (in many ways the album's thesisstatement) to the whispered mantra of , "rdquo" -> Resonant Angle, Seer Within," weare borne atop a ceaselessly cresting wave of raw power and giddydelight. Mercereau's is a singular vision, and yet, to anyone who hasdoggedly pursued the music, these sounds, these choices, will beinstantly familiar.
