Emeralds cofounder Steve Hauschildt has been crafting intricate, techno-inflected ambient music since long before that experimental Cleveland trio split up in early 2013. Last week Hauschildt, who now lives in Chicago, dropped Dissolvi (Ghostly International), an album of gentle, crystalline synths and steady techno pulses. On Saturday, August 11, he celebrates with a release show at Sleeping Village; also on the bill are Michael Vallera and Julianna Barwick, who appears on standout Dissolvi track “Saccade.” This wolf is hoping for a live duet!
