about

The act of conjuring remarkable sound from found objects is at the
very heart of this recording from American musicians Greg Davis and
Jeph Jerman. Having met in Arizona some years back, Davis and
Jerman commenced working together on a series of recording
projects.

Improvising with a range of implements and devices ranging from
sticks, stones and low-fi electronics to prepared instruments, gongs
and broken percussion, the pair sought to develop a personal
language that reflected their individual approaches but also created
a shared sensibility and aesthetic quality. Placing their work in a range
of environments, most of which orbit around Jerman’s ranch in
Cottonwood, Davis and Jerman create a richly textured array of
sounds from the most modest of sonic tools.

Each of the works featured here collects together multiple improvised
sessions, which have been edited to create a flowing sense of
movement and space. These tempered post-concréte works resolve a
joint interest from these two musicians in the act of freeform found
sound improvisation and experimentation.

Overlapped Memories

There's a lovely subtlety at play here, where I can't tell what's looping and what's not. Despite the titles not offering much in the way of explanation, I think there's humor, nostalgia, and great care in this collection. Ned Milligan
