Musical Observations, Inc. is a non-profit corporation founded by Paul Zukofsky in 1975 to promote new music and support musical projects he felt would otherwise be ignored. Today Musical Observations, Inc. carries on his legacy by making available the recordings on his CP² label and his critical writings on (mostly) music available at our website
"A few months ago I found some old SD cards from my oldfangled ZOOM H4. While exploring them I found some nice ambient recordings from the live performances from my China Tour in 2009 and live-acts in Poland. I decided to use them, to make some new deep-ambient-techno tracks. I love travelling and being "on tour" so most of the tracks were composed while I was on the train or travelling to different cities."
I did not find this the easiest or most immediate album to get into on first listen, but on repeated listens it is really growing on me. Moody Iranian experimental ambient with scraping/droning strings, field recordings, noise, hypnotic folky vocals, and a slightly chaotic, dislocated vibe all of its own. Unusual, haunting, and recommended if you have time to dig past the surface. Very rewarding. There's a good review here.
