whole bunch of freebies on the wondrous art repository that is ubuweb from c. spencer yeh just now. some solo work, some collaborative stuff with john olson, aaron dilloway, paul flaherty, chris corsano, john wiese and coldplay.
okay the last one was a lie.
though i’d like to see him noiseburst chris martins’ head like some blood and meat filled balloon.
consider it all a cheeky taster, an amuse-bouche, a pre-prandial cocktail before you delve into the luminous voluminous vastness of his aurally demanding back catalogue. all of which collectively marries, like some huge moonie sound wedding:
swarming violin frenzy to hissing drone, unpeeled convulsing improve to morphed manipulated voice assaults, hypno-distorto-field recordings to wild noise, pitter-patterns of crackling ambient to kompulsive klamouring kraut rhythm, ecstatic explosive ergonomic (ha!) free jazz to scrawls of mechanical synth swarms, mindfuckingpfracturedsyche to brainstrokingfreakoutsoundart, hissing black doom to powerful electron hiccups.
and somehow manages to make these cacaphonic abstractions not entirely unapproachable.
