Release Roundup: Tiny
Hairs Subtle Invisible Bodies (False Walls)
This sextet employs significant amounts of improvisation and
experimentation, but their main goal seems to be beauty. Painterly
prettiness from violinist Peter Rosenbloom, electronicist and turntablist
Charles King, and electric guitarist Mark Booth levitates over the
somnambulant drumming of Jim Lutes, who spreads the rhythms all
over his drum kit, and the mutating acoustic guitar arpeggios of
Jonathan Liss; John DeVylder's somber double bass holds everything
in place. While the music is probably as static as Sinister Luck
Ensemble's, the intuitive quicksilver interaction between players
gives it an exciting tension.
