Rome Pays Off

'Rome Pays Off' are an active diversion for Mark Beazley & Crawford Blair, two founding members of Rothko, the original bass-troika minimaldronewhathaveyou.
They have completed a record entitled 'There's No Simple Explanation' which will be released some time in late Sept or possibly early October.
The record's sound is that of two stereo bass guitars, drone, piano and some very faint reaKtor arpeggio.
Many of the tracks are simple duets that took just a little longer to record than they did to write.
This does not mean however, that the record is improvised.
For live performances they are joined by Chris Gowers who plays tabletop treated guitar, as he also likes to do in the bands Karina ESP and Signals.
The record will be released as a short run on Trace Recordings, and in accordance with the long-tail theory there will be boutique material generated for those who purchase possibly a beautiful, very long-form drone piece featuring all three members.
We are even considering making 50 bespoke mixes of a RPO song available, attributed and dedicated to each of it's sole buyers, for a reasonable fee of course. This idea may not fly.
