Datashock & Aidan Baker & Leah Buckareff – Collaboration – LP

That night the septet combined free sound improvisations and electro-acoustic music with psychedelic, traditional and cosmic frequences in avery particular and idiosyncratic manner.The result is a 16 minutes long ensemble of sounds, an elegiacallygliding swirl of resounding, clacking, booming and billowing sounds,which intensely and hypnotically swells out of the boxes. Sometimes itproduces a chaotic impression as percussion sounds, billowing whisper,nervous howling and creaking guitar sounds get hectically jumbeled. Themusic resounds constantly powerful and measured and mountains of dullsounds, mystic and drawn-out voices, which resemble electronicallyalienated Sufi rituals during a consciousness-expanding trip, arise.But it does not turn out to be endless singsong or even mere boringrepetition. In short: It was a downright crazy, exciting and impressingexperience, which, as it was eternalized on vinyl, developes its ownspecial character.
