The Flood by Mark Rushton and Jon
Harnish
An album tentatively scheduled for release in 2009, it'll be available on iTunes, AmazonMP3.com,
Napster, Rhapsody, Ruckus, and other digital content providers
through my longtime affiliation with CDBaby as a digital
distribution portal. The Flood's title track is a 22
minute and 48 second ambient piece that has three different
sections, and was recorded at Public Space One in Iowa City on
October 19, 2008. It's an incredible piece of music/sound
art. The Flood will feature other pieces of music, as
well.

Untitled Release by Mark Rushton and Jon
Harnish with Craig Erickson
Jon and I recorded with guitarist Craig
Erickson at Public Space One in Iowa City on November 2, 2008. There are
several tracks which will likely be released, including
"Bathyscaphe", "Challenger Deep", "Circadian Drift", "Hotel
Jefferson", "Piezoelectric", and "A Short Drive Through
Kingston". We're not sure if this will be an EP or
expanded into a full album release.

Mark Rushton and Jon Harnish
Released in early 2008, these recordings were
based on loops created at Jon's Weather Excuse studio in late
2005-early 2006 and mixed together with live recordings captured

Very quiet, ambient, and winter-ish, some tracks were featured
in a past podcast called "What Does An Iowa Winter Sound Like?"

Amazon, and Last.fm.
