Quartet Music Vol. I: LuMiSong
The first time the band that became LuMiSong ever played together was during the Great Lockdown of July 2020. The others wore masks while I stood twenty feet away with the door behind me open to a Gowanus side-street. I hadn’t shared a sound or negotiated an eighth-note with anybody for months and the experience overwhelmed me with emotion. (The most basic facts of collective music-making are the most profound.) We all brought in music to that session and to the many that followed. Matt and Sant…
Rex
Rex is a solo cello record written and recorded while I’ve been living in the former home of Rex Brasher, a self-taught painter who created over 1,200 watercolors of North American birds. Composed for acoustic and electric cello, the record reflects the solitude and intensity that shaped both Brasher’s vision and my own process. Rex is not a portrait, but an echo—of a person, a place, and a way of seeing the world. Thank you to Matthew, Munawar, Cynthia & the RBA for the place, support, and gene…

Mooko
**2009 release, long out of print, very few copies available** Mooko was the first installment of a short-lived "power trio" comprised of Japanese free saxophonist Akira Sakata, bassist Bill Laswell, and drummer Ronald Shannon Jackson. At the time of this recording, the latter two were deeply into their Last Exit project, a band with whom Sakata sat in during their tour of Japan. This trio is a bit like a pared-down version of Last Exit, without the incendiary guitar work of Sonny Sharrock…

Stilness
Latest missive from the recent wave of D.Jackman releases. This one is sure to please fans of early Organum releases with it’s rolling churning drone industrial electronics. Again, music made by Jackman, in a world conceived by Jackman, sounding exactly like a part of this immense Jackman language. A new staggering piece to this immense ongoing project. A constant flow of wavesCold, light and flourescentCrystallise empty feelingsThe howling echoes of a foxSomewhere in a vast open plainAn asteroi…
Solitude
"David Jackman’s music, both as Organum and under his given name, is typically characterized by repetition, brevity and a deadpan aloofness. He’s made plenty of extremely short (sometimes one-sided) 7” singles, albums containing multiple slight variations on a single piece, and albums of compositional (if not sonic) minimalism. It’s Jackman’s typical move to provide very little information beyond a word, or sometimes an image. Lately, he’s been predisposed to not even providing an image; just as…
Wildness
Lighting flashes through the ether and rain whips the earth violently. From the innermost depths, the pale of candles, a constancy. A midnight torrent overflows and marks time in solitude. The cold air searches, sewing through the ground, slowly changing and irresolute, nothing is lost. Paths are drawn contorted by fierce winds that traverse the ground in uncertain times and places. Oreder flows through chaos, every step of the spiral is forever surging and altered, yet everlasting. In a space, …

The Years After
*200 copies limited edition* "Our first album we made together, "The Days After", was initially released on Three Poplars in 2003. Then, afterwards in 2007 it was re-issued with a new version of the second track, "Flaxen", on Faraway Press.
After having found the earliest version of 'The Days After' in my archives last autumn, there was an excitement that grows with the beginning of something in the creative process and the sparkle of an idea that can never be recreated. Furthermore, there was …
Hearing Metal 2
Pisaro’s “Hearing Metal” series is a multipart lecture of the above, now on its third rendition. Each is in dedication to the sculptor Constantin Brâncuşi, with track names and piece subtitles littered with Brâncuşi references (Sleeping Muse, The Endless Column, Prometheus, 1911). Although the orchestration differs across each entry, each piece is primarily composed of electronic (sine tones, field recordings, a guitar, etc.) and percussive (cymbals, tam-tams, ‘surfaces,’ almglocken, etc.) eleme…
