Philip B Persinger has been writing stuff for over 40 years. At first, he wrote a mess of plays. Two of them were good. Then he wrote software. He was successful enough at that that. He lived the suburban dream. He worried about his lawn. Then one morning, he saw a woman. He hadn't seen for over twenty-five years, running down these subways steps. He called out her name. She. Stopped and looked up. It was indeed she (sic. He walked into her again. This time at a Starbucks.

Thursday, May 21, 2015. The vinyl keeps on a-comin'. Robert Piotrowicz/Lukáš Jiřička - Samoobrona (Bôłt).

But also some watery sounds) alongside a dry, high whistling tone, all presented at substantial volume, linear in a sense but chaotic within that linearity. A severe thwack.

A mix of field recordings, sounds from You Tube footage (largely dealing with war, death and other atrocities) and musical contributions from, among many others, Elena Kakaliagou (french horn), Kostis Kilymis (recordings, electronics), Nicolas Malevitsis (noises) and Nikos Vekliotis (cello).

Sunday, April 19, 2015. VA AA LR - polis (Intonema). Wherein our favorite initials-only trio (Vasco Alves, Adam Asnan, Louie Rice) take sounds from earlier installations, including the conversations of passersby and/or gallery goers, and place unexpected emphasis on rhythmic elements, albeit slow, even drippy ones. Good stuff, very different from standard fare, rather unique. The Pitch - Frozen Orchestra (Amsterdam) (Sofa). CH/DH - Egregore Source (Art Kill Art). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). In hi...

Thursday, April 16, 2015. Magnus Granberg/Skuggorna och Ijuset - Would Fall from the Sky, Would Wither and Die (Another Timbre). A subtle, almost masked kind of cadence in effect, however. Very often I found myself thinking of a slow, gentle tumble down a hillside, juggling a few possessions, each step or fall similar in a general sense, different in particulars, never encountering a serious obstacle, just negotiating the slant and the minor bumps and branches along the way. In his spare time, Olewnick w...

Monday, June 01, 2015. So, it's with substantial sadness but, admittedly, no small sense of relief that I'm announcing my virtual retirement from the music reviewing life. As many of you know, Betsy and I are moving back to the US in a couple of months and I'd like to devote much more time to painting and drawing, something that's been difficult given the volume of new music that regularly appears in my mailbox (stuff you actually have to spend time listening. In any case: Please stop sending me music!
