san agustin with suzanne langille
passing song
fv9 cd ep

the new york city based san agustin has been performing with vocalist suzanne langille since 1997. the two have found an unmatchable connection in their expansive dialogue of impeccably matched twin guitars and percussion with the ageless blue moaned singing and lyrics. these six passing songs are meticulous flares, crafted in the highest order. slightly dissonant leanings and free spirit that is carried by a woman who has lived each word she sings.

san agustin
amokhali
fv3 cd

nyc/atlanta trio of andrew burnes (guitar), david daniell (guitar), and bryan fielden (drums). this debut full-length takes the six-string blues dissonance to new heights. glacial tempos rich in melodic-flow position themselves between the partial jazz trappings. quite a technical (and emotional) leap from the debut 12" on road cone. these three have create a totally whole and unique american music all their own. gorgeous metallic on metallic ink insert and tray.

january 2007 release from james elliott aka ateleia. i raved about james’ last disc on his antiopic label; this one raises the bar with a sweet mix of glossy digital drones and punctuating regular rhythms.

just the kind of swooping, glacial electronics that we all swooned over @ the turn of the century, updated to modern spec. features contributions from david daniell, david grubbs, jon philpot, and sadek bazaraa.

between this disc, david daniell’s recent solo outing “coastal”, and keenan lawler’s “music for the bluegrass states”, xeric is fast becoming one of my favorite contemporary-music labels...
xeric press release...
ateleia formal sleep

james elliott: bass guitar, guitar, synthesizer, computer
sadek bazaraa: guitar on bridget riley
david daniell: cymbals on a doubtful shore
david grubbs: harmonium on formal barrier
jon philpot: melodica on bridget riley

ateleia is brooklyn resident james elliott. his music combines crystalline pulse with submerged aquatic drones and subtle ghost melodies. it's not so much oceanic as it is tide pool - the churn of the tidal impulse captured in miniature and crawling with activity. evoking the grand echo of my bloody valentine and the long standing tradition of psychedelic minimalism, but informed by contemporary electronic music, formal sleep is truly immersive. featuring contributions by david grubbs (gastr del sol), david daniell (rhys chatham, jonathan kane), jon philpot (presocratics, bear in heaven) and sadek bazaraa.

goddamn... this is such a killer record. i’ve long been a fan of david’s work with san agustin and his solo records on antiopic, but this, for me, trumps just about everything else of his i’ve heard...

coastal” is an extended suite utilizing guitars, scattered percussion, tons of electro-acoustic techniques & processes, and, most importantly, finely honed compositional prowess. it touches down on so many of the musical concepts/practices that i hold dear, and does so with such an acute awareness of the history of recorded sound that it’s hard to keep back the gush (must... resist...)

...yet another reason not to compile your year-end lists until january... every time i spin this disc it creeps up another notch. if, like me, you’re feeling the current merging of modern classical & musique concrète sensibilites with rock instrumentation & contemporary sound-tools, then i give this, to you, my highest recommedation.

have you heard the raw, minimal howl that rises from the late-night, backwoods campfires at table of the elements? if so, you know the work of david daniell — even if you don't yet recognize the name. daniell is the head of both of composer rhys chatham's current ensembles; he's the lead guitarist in jonathan kane's rollicking band, february; he performs regularly in a duo with tortoise's doug mccombs; he has collaborated with a who's who of today's finest, including tim barnes, thurston moore and loren connors; and his guitar work with his own band, san agustin, is the stuff of which fleeting blues-drone dreams are made.

following a long break after his debut solo release, daniell now returns with coastal. in all its variety, this record is a focused synthesis of influences. tracks like "sunfish" and "glasswort" use acoustic guitar reminiscent of work by david grubbs and mountains, while the thick psychedelic morass of deep electric guitar, synth drone and scattered tribal percussion of "whelk" brings to mind early faust, and the long-form tone poem "palmetto" is pure swirling electronic glacial beauty. rooted in the blues, american minimalism and post-punk ideologies, daniell's guitar playing is always inspired; when fused with his intricate electroacoustic compositions, the results are breathtaking.

very nice collection of table of the elements-relatable artists & friends paying homage to john fahey in song. standout tracks by sir richard bishop (an eerie/distant psych-out with harmonizer-fx), david daniell (an 11+ minute epic that begins as a crisp travis-picked ditty, then evolves into a huge, harsh drone cloud before descending down into a memphis-tinged coda of slide guitar & ambience - awesome...)
table of the elements press release...
the great koonaklaster speaks: a john fahey celebration

john fahey's death is shrouded in confusion and camouflage. he is believed to have died in the explosion of a house during the filming of michelangelo antonioni's zabriskie point in 1969. his remains were never found, and the question remains: did fahey purposely stage his own death for his own occlusive purposes?

a collusion of folk, blues, ethnic and modern classical methods, fahey's music suggests both the trickster and the shaman, and has attracted a cult of musician followers over the years, ranging from the ridiculous to the sublime. his unsolved disappearance has inspired another cult that worships count saint germain, a rosicrucian adept who is said to have never died and assumed various identities over the centuries. disciples of this sect, heard on this record, believe fahey, "the great koonaklaster," to be the most recent incarnation of saint germain. they view fahey's music as a synthesis of saint germain's abilities as a classical composer and skills as an alchemist, and have absorbed his guitar style in order to pay homage to him.

there is much to be gleaned from the koonaklasterians' rites contained within; whether or not you choose to accept this "immortal motherf#cker of the 20th century" as saint germain is up to you.
