Tony Conrad , Tim Barnes & Mattin - Untitled (Celebrate Psi Phenomenon, 2006)


1 Untitled (60:48)

La légende vivante du drone Tony Conrad, le bruitiste Mattin et les gongs de Tim Barnes réunis pour une performance live en avril 2005 à Buffalo, et tout ça sorti sur le label de Campbell Kneale: du bruit qui part dans tous les sens...

Face-flattening trio generating walls of pure steel drone, puckering shaved-string assault and all-out heavy gravity. Featuring Tony Conrad, Tim Barnes (Tower Recordings et al) and 'anti-copyright' laptop artist and conceptualist Mattin. "Time to dig out that old crash-helmet from the back of the wardrobe to meet the challenge of this head-wrecker. No folks, this recording will not go down in history for its subtlety. The obligatory chair-shuffling intro quickly gives way to the most withering scree-ee-ech and grubby microtonal shudder in a near-Stalinist attempt for total mind control. I can see the audience now... blubbering and gripping the chair in front like some kinda airliner catastrophe! A twenty storey Hoover gobbles the entire North East of the USA... pausing only briefly to empty the bag and replace smoldering fuse wire. Hard, harmful, full of choking dust... toasters are shorted out all over the northern hemispere and cassettes are erased in car stereos. Electricity decides upon a new master and casts off its cumbersome rubber shackles... free and burning... singing hallelujah to the great cosmic soundcheck in the sky." - Campbell Kneale.
