PC‑ONE is a musical project created by Michael J. Bostwick and launched by the independent netlabel Pipe Choir to showcase songs that diverge from the usual Pipe Choir sound. Established in 2015, PC‑ONE serves as Bostwick’s personal platform for sonic experimentation, allowing him to explore styles and genres that might not fit within Pipe Choir’s typical aesthetic. The project spans a wide range of musical expressions, from acoustic minimalism to heavy metal.
One of the key releases under PC‑ONE is Wilderness, a collection of 13 acoustic guitar and vocal songs emphasizing simplicity and raw musicality. In contrast, Division represents a heavier side of PC‑ONE, featuring a full album of heavy metal tracks that showcase a more aggressive and powerful sound.
Since its inception, PC‑ONE’s music has been freely available through the Pipe Choir netlabel, distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license, encouraging sharing, adaptation, and remixing with proper credit. This approach aligns with Pipe Choir’s broader philosophy of open music distribution and artistic freedom.
Through PC‑ONE, listeners can experience a diverse and evolving catalog that pushes the boundaries of the Pipe Choir identity, reflecting Michael J. Bostwick’s creative range and artistic vision.
