Subsidence is an original work commissioned by Friends After Good Sound (F.A.G.S.) in Portland, Oregon. Subsidence is the result of a sudden drop in the earth’s surface. This can be observed at the Cascadia subduction off the coast of Oregon.

Friends After Good Sound is a queer new music collective focused exclusively on bringing new works by local PDX composers to life. We seek to be a vehicle that overcomes the many trepidations posed to artists when it comes to creating new work. New work is the pulse of any good music scene, it's exciting, it’s overrated, it doesn't work, it changes things and people. Without new work  concerts can be boring, predictable and prescribable. (F)-(A)-(G)-(S) isn't that.
