Kyle Bruckmann & Tim Daisy
Loop Language (Relay Digital 012)
Relay Recordings
“Bay area oboist and composer Kyle Bruckmann and Chicago based percussionist Tim Daisy continue their two decades long musical partnership with a set of electro - acoustic duo compositions and improvisations inspired by the visual art of Annabeth Rosen. ”
Fred Lonberg-Holm & Ken Vandermark
Consequent Duos: series 2d
Audiographic Records
“This new recording reveals a completely different set of improvisational concerns and makes a remarkable counterweight to their first duo release, "Resistance," with a range of intensities and instrumentation between the two musicians that is remarkable.”
Joe Morris Instantiation
Locale
Glacial Erratic
“Six versions of the piece are here, sequenced in the order in which we performed them in the studio. My goal with Instantiation is to create unique and rewarding experiences for listeners by synthesizing the meta-properties of Free Music in new and creative ways. I rely on the attention to the material and the individual and collective artistry of the ensemble of players to realize a unique result with each performance. - Joe Morris, liner notes”
Ikue Mori & Ken Vandermark
Consequent Duos: series 2c
Audiographic Records
“The music, though completely improvised, has a highly detailed, formal architecture that runs throughout its 38 minutes. The material unfolds with a true sense of surprise and risk, as it does on each occasion that Mori and Vandermark work together.”
