To highlight:
"Now Townsend tells Kaaos TV: “I’m writing a symphony, and I'm going to record it in Belgium in Surround Sound with a visual counterpart. It's going to have a lot of instruments that are not typical for orchestral stuff – a combination of everything."
I've always thought Townsend's music would work very well in surround, particularly the playfulness of his Ziltoid albums. Townsend's production style is extremely dense and layered. While some people are critical of his "wall of sound" production style, I think splitting it into five channels would open his music up significantly.
Anyway, thought I'd share this. I'm curious to see what comes of this (whatever this is).
