sedimental press release...

kyle bobby dunn - fragments & compositions (sedcd052) fragments & compositions is a collection of long-processed recordings that began at several universities and art centers visited frequently from 2005 to 2007. working with classically trained musicians recruited on a whim, dunn recorded the often awkward sounds of the sessions and sparse notes of the musicians as dunn dictated. the music addresses amongst other aspects: the pace of meeting people and their vanishing, the human condition, the nothingness of being, indifference, the ephemeral, the bleak and the misery of mid-winter and mid-summer. yet also the warmly humanist acceptance of these negative terms and things. sedimental has been following dunn’s sensitive and world-wise drone works closely for many years (keep in mind he is only 21 now), and with this brilliant new release we expect to expand his presence on many levels. kbd was born in toronto, ontario in 1986 and active since 2000 as a minimalist composer and sound artist. as a sound artist, dunn has exercised his work in exclusive outdoor locations, generating sound from site-specific environments and processing them via analog setups and laptop. he’s also premiered his more musical works at various academic settings including the alberta college of art and design, the banff arts centre, cantos music museum, the university of north carolina, the bickett gallery, and the more typical indie-rock venue.

songs from under the floorboards press release...

the intimate rituals of … kyle bobby dunn dark, brooding feedback drone that envelops a room and shakes it until the walls crack. by turns placid and malevolent, kyle bobby dunn‘s latest album seems to teeter at the edge of an explosion, barely able to contain its unstable electric power. intimate rituals was assembled from the resonance of pipes in dunn‘s brooklyn basement studio, as well as from overheard noise filtered through walls and floors (particularly at no fun festival 2009, with rumbling residue rescued from the bar beneath the stage where noise bands were blasting), and from a mixing desk feeding back on itself. warning: you may want to listen to this on headphones while drifting off to sleep… but trust me, don’t do it. limited edition cdr in gorgeous, full color three-panel sleeve. catalog no: floor1 format: cdr edition: 100
