Hello hello, we are pleased to announce we will be releasing the new album CARAVAN by the duo SALTPUPPET on May 1. Four songs from the album are available to listen to TODAY!

Caravan is the soundtrack of a wandering band in a wasteland world. The thirty three song album follows the wagon for three years as the travelers weather storms and sacrifice sanity on their journey to nowhere in particular.

The four songs available today are a preview of the full journey to come, and we hope you will be enticed by this glimpse into the world of Caravan. We are also pleased to announce a CD release of this album which is available to preorder on Bandcamp today.

Saltpuppet is the project of Brendan Principato and Connor Bush.

🪾⛰️🐦‍⬛ Had an incredible time touring the Southeast for the first time this week. Too many nice people and new friends to count, beautiful waterfalls everywhere, and plenty of comfort food. A sincere thank you to everyone who booked gigs, hosted me, and came out to listen. And a special thanks to @lukefromnashville for asking me to hit the road with him. I’ll be back as soon as I can.

Three tours, 25 shows, lots of fun with friends, started to learn how to run a farm, harvested 75 pounds of honey from my bees, and hiked a couple hundred miles through Hawaii, Maine, Colorado, Arizona, Florida, California, Oregon, Washington, Greece, Albania, and Sicily. A very good year.

We are thrilled to see the latest effort from @saapato 🧊 𝙸𝙽 𝙰𝙻𝙰𝚂𝙺𝙰 🧊 featured on @sawdeye’s ‘15 Best Ambient Albums of 2025’ list for @popmatters.

“appropriately ornate and chilled-out, locked in time, and ageless... Saapato’s sound is one of appreciation, which is then turned into some of the quietest and calming chords we’ve heard this year.”

Thanks Evan and everyone else who has listened to and engaged with this delicately observational work 🩵

My new album🔹In Alaska🔹came out last week. It’s been very nice to hear from so many people who are connecting with the music. Here’s some behind the scenes photos/process about what might be my favorite track on the record, ☀️🌳6am rainforest drone. Tapes are still available from @akprecordings. Thanks for listening.

Pleased to announce Brendan Principato as the newest member of the StretchMetal Board of Directors 🐸

@saapato is the music project of upstate New York–based sound artist Brendan Principato. His work explores the intersection of ecology and music, weaving manipulated field recordings with lush electronic soundscapes that invite listeners to reconsider their place within nature. He has completed multiple residencies with the National Park Service and the Alaska State Park Service, including a 2023 residency near Juneau documenting whale and bird migrations, and a 2022 residency on Fire Island, New York, recording the fragile ecologies of swale and dune habitats.

Brendan is also the land host to our series great big pond, our summer series of ambient music by a (big) pond which happens to be in Brendans backyard. We are pleased to welcome him on board!

“The Salmon Run is something that everyone should go and see for themselves. It is bar none the most incredible natural phenomenon I have ever experienced, a true sensory feast. It looks gorgeous, it looks hideous, it can smell disgusting, it sounds otherworldly, it’s upsetting, it’s uplifting, and it’s everywhere.

In a week I must have seen at least a million fish in all states of life and decay. I watched a salmon jump up over a waterfall into a natal stream and release spawn in a red cloud. I watched 10-20 thousand “zombie chum” swimming so perfectly with the current that they didn’t move. Everyday I saw piles of thousands of dead salmon in dried creek beds, some still alive, others but bones. Enormous, reeking, undulating masses of fish. The rot seeps into the earth and leads to incredibly rich soil, allowing the plants to flourish beyond imagination. To witness the circle of life like that was transformative for me and this little track tries to dip a toe into what that felt like.” - @saapato

ℐ𝓃 𝒜𝓁𝒶𝓈𝓀𝒶 - the new full-length record from 𝗦𝗮𝗮𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗼 - is out digitally and on limited run cassette November 14th.

The first single “Salmon Run” is out now 🐟

🌫️🟦🌫️ Out of the mist floats 𝑰𝒏 𝑨𝒍𝒂𝒔𝒌𝒂, a new @saapato album of recorded music and natural sound made while in residence with the Alaska State Park Service. Each composition reflects a different sonic space I experienced across the ten days I spent hiking and kayaking throughout the area. It’s a celebration of life and abundance, an elegy for silence and purity, and a field study of the sound environments found within the Tongass rainforest, and the Greater Juneau area’s rivers, mountain, channels, fjords and glaciers.

The full album will arrive on 11/14 via @akprecordings but today I’m happy to share 𝑺𝒂𝒍𝒎𝒐𝒏 𝑹𝒖𝒏, a song for one of Alaska’s most extreme ecological phenomena. In late August the water churns with salmon pushing upstream to spawn. Rivers become so full of fish it can be hard to see the water. Witnessing this key piece of Alaska’s cycle felt spiritual; I was completely overwhelmed by the density of life I encountered. This song is available everywhere now, though I hope you’ll consider listening to it somewhere other than Spotify. There’s also a video you can watch in my bio.

AKP Recordings is doing a very special and limited run of tapes designed by @baileyelderberry , featuring photos from my residency on every face of the cassette jacket. I’m psyched as hell on how these came out. You can grab one and/or a t-shirt (also designed by Bailey) on bandcamp.

Thank you for listening 🌱🌙

🌫️🟦🌫️ Out of the mist floats 𝑰𝒏 𝑨𝒍𝒂𝒔𝒌𝒂, a new @saapato album of recorded music and natural sound made while in residence with the Alaska State Park Service. Each composition reflects a different sonic space I experienced across the ten days I spent hiking and kayaking throughout the area. It’s a celebration of life and abundance, an elegy for silence and purity, and a field study of the sound environments found within the Tongass rainforest, and the Greater Juneau area’s rivers, mountain, channels, fjords and glaciers.

The full album will arrive on 11/14 via @akprecordings but today I’m happy to share 𝑺𝒂𝒍𝒎𝒐𝒏 𝑹𝒖𝒏, a song for one of Alaska’s most extreme ecological phenomena. In late August the water churns with salmon pushing upstream to spawn. Rivers become so full of fish it can be hard to see the water. Witnessing this key piece of Alaska’s cycle felt spiritual; I was completely overwhelmed by the density of life I encountered. This song is available everywhere now, though I hope you’ll consider listening to it somewhere other than Spotify. There’s also a video you can watch in my bio.

AKP Recordings is doing a very special and limited run of tapes designed by @baileyelderberry , featuring photos from my residency on every face of the cassette jacket. I’m psyched as hell on how these came out. You can grab one and/or a t-shirt (also designed by Bailey) on bandcamp.

Thank you for listening 🌱🌙
