Loom Angel makes harmonic alternative rock that tunes you to paradise. His most recent LP, Night Of Presence, channels vitality and courage through spooky, cool songs.

    • Loom Angel makes waves, halting new music until his record is produced

      After releasing his first two records, The Symbiotic Realm and Night Of Presence, alternative rock creator Loom Angel went on an unexpected, months-long hiatus.

      ​He closed his social media accounts, reset his website, and even scrubbed his music from virtually everywhere… just to randomly return, posting on his site that he was back.

      ​While his first two albums are now up exclusively on his website, what he was up to during this strange absence remained hidden until now. In a recent interview, Loom Angel revealed he has been busy playing live shows and even some “low-key touring.”

      ​I was enjoying performing but didn’t feel like playing the old songs all the time, so I started improvising live. It started with just making riffs and soloing, and those ideas grew into 4 or 5 full-blown songs. Then, due to some unusual glitch, I randomly received a treasure trove of old deleted tracks I had come up with during the ‘multidimensional era.’ Two of those songs really moved me, and they also fit the new record.

      ​Revisiting those ‘multidimensional era’ tracks inspired a few more fresh ideas, all written in front of audiences except one. That one song was written on camera while I was alone. That one song is “Planetary Motion.”

      ​With a 10-track record fully written but not yet recorded, Loom Angel has entered rehearsal mode, religiously performing the set list daily. To maintain focus, he is completely halting the writing of any new material.

      ​There are several songs on this future record that I have no idea how to play yet, at all. I’ll be working on those select songs for some time. The rest are going smoothly. However, the songwriting mind and the producer mind are quite different, so I’m switching off that creative muddle. I want to be strictly organized and really master performing these songs to a next level before I even start assembling a studio to record the album in the unforeseen future. It’s likely I won’t record a single note until 2027.

    • The Song Not Easily Defined: Planetary Motion

      Loom Angel just shared a live demo of “Planetary Motion,” and it doesn’t sound like most songs.

      While Loom Angel is known for blending genres, this one proved especially difficult to describe. For days he pondered: “How do I put the sound of this song into words?”

      Three days later, he still had no answer, so he asked indie artist Megan L. Divine.

      It took her a moment, but after hearing the full song, she finally settled on: “Indie Folk, Mellow Rock, & Easy Listening.”

      Loom Angel agreed that was a fair description.

      But that still leaves one question:

      What is the song about?

      Give this demo a listen and see what you think.

    • The ‘Multidimensional Era’ of Songs

      Every musician must decide what songs to keep. Oftentimes, songs are erased before you enter the studio. Other times, songs don’t fit the record, so just put them into a time capsule. What happened here was not typical.

      The multidimensional era was vibrant and emotionally abundant. There was momentum through a creative wave during the end of 2023 and the beginning of 2024, writing songs back-to-back for weeks and recording live performances of the songs. That was fun and rewarding, yet I was not able to yield a sensible record out of the sessions at the time.

      I felt the need to restart. Instead of sifting through, overwhelmed, I deleted all multidimensional era files for a fresh start. This restart lead to the making of the album The Symbiotic Realm. Yet, a surprising email years later explained how a glitch hid, stored, and saved the files.

      All media files were deleted, trash emptied, and my website was completely reset… yet some odd conversion process “glitch” hid and stored these multidimensional songs. Several days ago, I got an email with a list of video download links for every last song from that era.

      The “Multidimensional” album never actually was produced. I now have video performances of songs from that era, but the project never reached the studio. Within that spontaneous creative state, I couldn’t sift and discern properly. Although not a complete record, perhaps one or two select songs could be woven into future Loom Angel works.

    • Loom Angel Improvises “Own Ways” Live

      Whether energetic or introspective, Loom Angel’s songs are almost always atmospheric. However, during a recent storefront performance, Loom Angel spontaneously made a new song with a distinctive sound…

      Loom Angel must’ve known something was going to unfold. Why else record video? You can’t see much on video, except some people giving support for this unusually joyful and surprisingly fun performance.

      Loom Angel often creates songs before audiences. To perform this song in the future, he’ll need memorize and rehearse. How did alt rock musician Loom Angel end up creating an upbeat song like “Own Ways”?

    • I have returned… again

      That “experience rollercoaster” really had me whirling for the past few years…

      So, I became a ghost out there, learning how to be human.

      I stepped eons away from time and space to reclaim solid ground, but the adventure never paused.

      If anything, there’s more to show now.

      The lights are on again, pointing toward a new chapter.

      I’ve returned… What can I say?

      Keep looking forward.

      Something inexplicable is coming.
