about

A start of a new moniker, "Conversation, Adversary" is a post rock project about long tracks with movements. Secret Locations is about roads in Muskegon, where the band mates are from.



Rafe's Note: We've been heavily inspired by Godspeed You! Black Emperor, so we started a new post rock project all about long tracks and movements. We decided to make an album about roads in Muskegon since that's where we grew up. These four songs are pretty personal for me. One of the songs is a tribute to my grandfather's cats (or one of.) Other songs are about road trips, or person adventures, or accidents, or bad areas, or sentimental locations.

I was in pain whilst recording a couple of the tracks, but I persevered. I also sat down to make a song mostly by myself by slicing field recording and other recording of my play my electric guitar in order to make a twenty-three minute album, whilst wanting to wreck my main laptop because Hewlett Packard is straight up awful. Also, I've been having bad sleep for the past few days. Despite all this, this album was really fun to make. I even gained a new technique by using a microphone to make effected harmonica, steel drum and violin. I got this idea from King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, actually. (Thank you, Ambrose.)

I would like to thank Wilbur and his family, my family and friends, (especially Brandon, whom you can actually hear on this album), Godspeed You! Black Emperor, King Gizzard, my therapist, and everyone who has stuck around



Will’s Note:

Hello, I hope this album finds you well.

I don’t have too much to say about this album, it was made hastily, but with a lot of love put into it. Our process was to just record instrumentals and splice in various field recordings and other dumb junk around. Sometimes we do live sampling though, which is a tactic we learned from a black midi performance, so shout out to black midi. The tuning I use in this album is F #A# C# F# A# C#.

I’d like to thank God, Rafe, my grandparents, my sister, Rylie, Aleighsha, Lilly, Amber, LV, Rae, Taylor/Cosmo, Midnight, Salt, Hive, Spry, Vezette, Marauder, Kay, Hunter, Kaylee, Jadin, Kaelynn, Anjel, Faith, EJ, Luca, Jcran, veetez_77, illumitati, Efrim Menuck, Mike Moya, Dave Bryant, Isaac Wood, Lewis Evans, Tyler Cryde, May Kershaw, Luke Mark, Charlie Wayne, Georgia Ellery, Britt Walford, Brian McMahan, Dave Pajo, Todd Brashear, Ethan Buckler, Steve Albini, Mike Kinsella, Steve Holmes, Steve Lamos, Nate Kinsella, Tim Kinsella, Victor Villarreal, Robert “Bo” Burnham, and anyone else I might have missed. These people are all important to me, have helped me, or inspire me in some way. Thank you all.

Godspeed,

-Will
