Michael Heimbaugh. Michael Heimbaugh Fascinating, stunning. Feel like Thom Yorke and Phil Elverum owe a significant portion of their careers to this. Disco Sam. Disco Sam Maybe the most beautiful album in recorded music. It's almost like delving into a constant stream of consciousness where the listener can let go of any preconceptions of what music should sound like.
Hauntingly atmospheric and spacious, Arthur's crowning achievement is a musical detour well-worth taking, provided that you're willing to put your head on pause. Favorite track: Lucky Cloud. Corey Osboine. Alexey Rybakov.
Barbara Masley. Michael A Henry. Jack R. Jessica Shepard. Ieva Vaiti. Flora Carbo. Reeno Reluv. James Barnes. Ryan Delehanty. It's also Russell's most personal and radical statement: Here, he isn't cloaked in any congas and hi-hats, shouting divas, or ring-a-ding-ding Latin keyboards.
It's just his folksy, muppet tenor, cello, and scant electronic microtones-- all lathered with echo, distortion, and reverb. On these tracks, Russell creates beatless dance music that travels through outer space, making the journey his destination.
His onomatopoeias and string-work are uncannily percussive and seem to be faintly picked up by radio satellite. His improvisations mine every conceivable sound from his bow and cello's amplified body: hollow thuds, window-washing brushes, chipped strings, knuckled knacks, and the boom of a floor peg dropping on concrete.
However, the instrument startlingly duets with his voice, as it breathes along with him and clears its throat during his awkward moments. Whatever lyrics can be understood are stream-of-conscious blurts that exhibit pinhole views of his soul. The opener, "Tone Bone Kone", is a baffler. Russell huffs alliterations while his cello ransacks a room to chase after a ringing UFO noise. The following, three-part "Tower of Meaning - Rabbit's Ears - Home" is a gently narcotic ballad as he hums perfectly in-tune with his tapestry-weaving chords, uttering odd lines like "I'm watching out of my ear" and letting his vocal tones overpower all semantics.
