Triptych Wych

The debut EP from Triptych Wych is OUT NOW! Expect melodic moments, math rock twists, and riffs with teeth — All drenched in a bluesy haze of psychedelia.

Guitar: Doug Wilson
Bass: Peter Timmins
Drums: James Bull

If you’ve been following my work at Band Of One the video above may look familiar. It’s a further development of some of my Blender animation experiments from last year. I think I mentioned at the time that it would make great live visuals to project behind or onto a band and I guess we’re almost at that stage with this new project now. Very exciting!

Below is some more art that I’ve created for the band. First up we decided a Tarot card design would be a cool image for the band. We wanted to develop some strange lore for the band so this image sort of hints at an explanation of the Triptych Wych name.

The EP cover design came together quite quickly. We’ve had various temporary names for the songs as we’ve been writing and rehearsing these tunes. The song Permutations was referred to as Spirograph for a long while, until we realised that the name is probably trademarked and likely to cause un-wanted complications upon release. So the album cover became a little nod to the forgotten name. Fittingly it was created with my sons cheap off-brand/knock off version of the popular spiral-making contraption.

Permutations is a better song title anyway 😀

Tone Quest Album

I made an album of instrumental music in my home studio. It’s called Tone Quest.

“Hey Doug, I only want to listen to one track to try it out” Sure, this is a good track to start with: Tone Quest – Remote Viewing

“Hey Doug, I’d love to check out the whole album for free” Great, you can listen to the album here: Tone Quest – YouTube

“Hey Doug, I’ve listened to it multiple times and would like to throw money at you!” Incredible, you can purchase the album here: https://bof1.bandcamp.com/album/tone-quest

Blender Animation Explorations

Follow along with my animation explorations on our YouTube Channel.

I’ve worked in the animation industry for 16 years and that time has been split almost perfectly 50/50 between 3D and 2D projects. I love working in both mediums and each has their benefits and draw-backs. The more I’m learning in Blender, the more I’m bringing those two worlds together. It really is the perfect animation program for my sensibilities. It’s been so much fun doing these small bite size projects to apply all these new skills. Lots more stuff to come in the near future.
