chris forsyth - live journal at the mice machine vip dance floor 

all instruments chris forsyth 

guitarist/composer chris forsyth cuts a wide path through the contemporary music scene with projects ranging from avant-rock to electro-acoustic improv to unclassifiable folk/noise/drone hybrids. he is perhaps best known as a founding member of the iconoclastic group peeesseye more recently, forsyth has begun branching out in a solo direction, composing and performing on 12-string acoustic guitar, resulting in his first solo cd live journal at the mice machine vip dance floor.

the music on this record, is rhythmic and lyrical, emphasizing the glowing overtones of his unusual tuning schemes and a relentless sense of repetition. bits of organ and drum machine flesh out the sound of forsyth's 12-string guitar, with the results sounding less like one the recent spate of guitar folk revivalists and more like tom verlaine playing elegiac  acoustic versions of glenn branca pieces.  live journal at the mice machine vip dance floor is forsyth's first solo recording to be  released since his long out of print debut 1998 seven-inch on the micro-label bottomfeeder.

march 2009 release ; second of two 7” single records in unframed’s “i/d/v” series ...

the theme here is the guitar ; each participant contributing a short piece & two infinite-repeat lock grooves utilizing their respective approaches to the instrument ... as can be expected, the pieces by giuseppe ielasi & mountainskoen holtkamp (listen to the sound-sample) are excellent, but in fact the quality control is superb throughout (many of the locks work well as micro-minimalist suites) ... highly recommended !!!
unframed press release...

i/d/v 02 7” series
 
a series of 7” records of 1 minute tracks and lock grooves. focus of each volume is on one particular instrument and on the ways in which invited artists address the specifics of duration as defined by the given format. duration here is not considered as a mere quantity of time, but as the subjective relations that we establish within time’s dimension.

twelve participants to the first two releases contribute one minute-long track and two locked grooves (of 1.8 seconds at 33.1/3 rpm). each record has six 1-minute tracks and twelve locked grooves. either approached as open works of art or just as dj tools, the records in this series straightforwardly demand an active mode of listening.

i/d/v 02, the second 7” in the series, focuses on a range of original approaches to guitar playing and recording. ian epps, kenta nagai, annette krebs, chris forsyth, giuseppe ielasi and koen holtkamp are all well-known for their idiosyncratic styles, and recognized as contemporary innovators of the instrument. various extended and traditional techniques are articulated in this compendium through electric, acoustic, twelve-string and fretless guitar.
