Drone never dies.

Ohio synth three-piece Emeralds have disbanded, but that was never going to be the last we would hear of the trio. Steve Hauschildt has announced that he will be collecting up two discs worth of solo material, released and unreleased, spanning his career from 2005 up until 2012. Much of the material has appeared on the mass of tapes and limited edition CDRs Hauschildt has had a hand in over the last few years, but there’s plenty here for the completists.

Entitled SH, this compilation is intended to show Hauschildt’s development as a solo artist, and chart a path through his time with Emeralds up until the band splintered.
