about

Recordings of improvised music are compositions. For a studio version of a piece that's impossible to play the same way twice, the only way out is through -- there has to be more than just one of them.

The two versions of ‘Monitress’ released on Hausu Mountain remain the best introductions, more than enough for most. But just as it’s impossible to hear the same piece of music more than once, ’Synthetic Monitress’ is the third of seven versions of essentially the same album. These tracks all received enough in the way of additional editing and counterpoint that one suspected perhaps they'd been pushed too far back into human territory. Even so... still family.

credits

released August 23, 2021

Voices captured and edited 2015-2021

Special guest: Mark Hosler - booper on ‘Lent Pain’, bass on ‘Ant Financial’

‘Curious Monitress’ is taken from the ending of a live video recorded on 2 February 2021 for Russ Curry, and included in the film ‘An Afternoon Of Curious Music’

There was an even stronger Cluster influence than usual this time around. At one point I typed in ’Selbsttonspuren’ to a translator to see what would happen, and got back: ‘Autosound Tracks’. Thank you Achim, and in memory of Moe.
