Darrell DeVore
More Songs of Civilization
Excavating new sonic layers from archives and homemade instruments, Darrell DeVore extends his panoramic collage with More Songs of Civilization - the third volume of his highly personal, genre-scrambling series. This edition continues the kaleidoscopic fusion of outsider jazz, synthetic textures, chants, and fragmented ensemble dialogues, casting a wide net through decades of radical experimentation and archival recovery.
A Song of Civilization Up to Now
With a panoramic sweep spanning ancient chant, synth experiment and fractured jazz, Darrell DeVore crafts a heady multi-part journey in A Song of Civilization Up to Now. Homemade instruments, electronics and stuttering ensemble work animate an unpredictable collection that tunnels between traditions, collage and improvisation, reflecting on humanity’s creative arc through uncompromising sonic invention.
Another Song of Civilization
Unearthed from decades of cassettes, live sessions, and scattershot archive, Darrell DeVore’s Another Song of Civilization expands his collage of experimental Americana, global chant, tape concrète, and found-instrument jazz. The album takes his freeform, cross-generational vision still further—organizing fragments, improvisations, and irreverent juxtapositions into a warm, searching portrait of creative persistence.
