  • Surgeon's next album, Luminosity Device, was inspired by Bardo Thödol, commonly known as The Tibetan Book Of The Dead. The nine-track album, which will hit the shelves on May 25th, is due out on Anthony Child's own Dynamic Tension label in double vinyl and digital formats. Thanks to its vision of a continuous flow between states of life and death, Bardo Thödol has been a common point of reference for Western artists throughout the 20th century. It's Child's first album under the Surgeon moniker since 2016's From Farthest Known Objects. In the meantime, he's put out ambient records with Editions Mego and techno 12-inches on labels like Blueprint. Child has also prepared a new live set, which will be performed at select events from late spring. Where his recent modular sets were improvised, the new show is based on Luminosity Device. Listen to "The Primary Clear Light."
    Tracklist 01. Seven Peaceful Deities? 02. The Primary Clear Light 03. Courage To Face Up To? 04. earth-sinking-into-water 05. Master Of All Visible Shapes? 06. The Vibratory Waves of External Unity 07. Eight Wrathful Deities? 08. The Etheric Body 09. The Source Dynamic Tension will release Luminosity Device on May 25th, 2018.
