Recorded at the opening-night performance on June 30 as part of "STATION TO STATION," the exhibition curated and hosted over roughly a month at London's Barbican Centre by American contemporary artist DOUG AITKEN. The A-side offers seven short tracks, including "Water" (sample1) and "Somni" (sample2), drawn from an installation that gathered countless instruments — the hum and noise of the space, the sounds of visitors moving through the gallery — and collaged drums on top. The B-side is given over entirely to "One Take" (sample3), a deeply focused improvisation to savor from start to finish! A wonderful recording in which multi-percussion that conjures silence, along with organic minimalism from piano and vibraphone, sends sound images drifting by to soothe the listener's mind.
