***Audio speleologists LOREN CHASSE (JEWELLED ANTLER, THUJA, BLITHE SONS, FRANCISCAN HOBBES) and JIM HAYNES (The Wire) collaborate on their third album of "broken minimalism," an exploration of sound possibilities originating from traditionally non-musical materials (copper, stone, glass, sand, shortwave radio, rust, wind, water and mud). Sifting through viscous electrical fields, slumbering vibrations, and aerosolized pricklings, the duo invokes an aggregate of sustained harmonics, continuously evolving sound forms, and broad gestures of textural details. Monumental physicality somewhere between the quiet expressionism of recent AMM and John Duncan's psychological inquiries.

***The textural flutters, squeaks, and mobile scrabblings of LOREN CHASSE (JEWELLED ANTLER COLLECTIVE, THUJA) and corrosion aficionado JIM HAYNES bring minimalism back from the dead. Bell tones, ghostly feedback, and tuning fork resonations all spiral together into translucent drones.
