Inindependence

Thrill Jockey

When you make your music complicated, you are guaranteeing the individuality of every note you play. There will be no revisiting that phrase, or repeating that riff until fade. You make each note a unique signpost along an advancing path, and you can never say “haven’t I been here before?” Inindependence careens through several moods, ranging from the expected contrast between introspective and overpowering to an unusual sensibility to the number three. You can lose yourself in the details, or become overwhelmed by the scope of the compositions… Thrill Jockey Records, Box 476794, Chicago, IL 60647; http://www.thrilljockey.com/
