Talkdemonic’s new album Various Seasides comes out on October 28th, 2022. It is the long-awaited fifth full-length, after eleven years, from Brooklyn based-composer Kevin O’Connor. With Various Seasides, O’Connor has fervently brought into being a perfect score to resonant pleasure in sound, encouraging steady play in its loving ways of nautical soundscape. 

O’Connor played all the instruments on the album. Various Seasides is thus a return to the band’s beginnings, once again a solo creation sharing its origins with Mutiny Sunshine (2004). “I always meant for Talkdemonic to become my own thing again one day, and this album is the definition of that notion,” he explains. It was also produced, recorded, and mixed by O’Connor at Talknumeric in Brooklyn, New York.  Along with his Talkdemonic releases, O’Connor also wrote music for Universe (2020), the gorgeous feature biopic about jazz trumpeter Wallace Roney, named Best Music Documentary by the International Documentary Association, the world’s most prestigious event dedicated to the documentary genre. He is also known for creating film scores for the environmental documentary Back Water (2020) and the disturbing narrative drama Birds of Neptune (2015), as well as creatively assisting Oscar-nominated composer Johann Johannsson on Darren Aronofsky’s horror film Mother! (2018).
