june 2008 release ; cd version of this most recent album by this american pedal-looping, skyward-glancing guitarist/composer ...

atp/recordings press release...

"texts of this nature usually require the author to make fashionable or wilfully oblique references to artists past and present. portal, the third alexander tucker long player for atp recordings is a work of such bewitching splendour that any such comparisons would read like hyperbole, thus doing it a great disservice. even tucker's previous albums (old fog and furrowed brow) seem like stepping stones in the wake of portal. but if we must draw comparisons then lets say chicago musician/composer jim o' rourke both are unparalleled in their pairing of the 20th century avant-garde techniques of composers like stockhausen and steve reich with the archaic sounding free-folk of john fahey, robbie basho and loren connors.

the late karlheinz stockhausen envisaged music where "instead of very precisely formed single notes there are little complexes little crystalline blooms that pass through a register form". during portal, tucker's finger-picked guitar lines become indistinguishable from the more traditional string arrangements and voice. these melodic clusters interweave like the paths incurved by a figure skater. this is still to say nothing of tucker's voice, which sounds as if it is emanating from a ghost channel on an ancient mixing desk rather than appear sung on top of the epochal arrangements. it's a voice comparable perhaps to meddle era david gilmour or john martyn on solid air. these are big claims of course but then portal is a work of such extraordinary majesty that even trying to surmise it in words seems like a heresy. if you disagree after listening, then i'm sorry to inform you that you are spiritually dead."

- tony f wilson.

black haw (3:18)
clé elum (1:49)

rattling the calabash (4:07)
birds inspire epic bards (2:04)
of tubal cain (2:24)

atp/recordings press release...

alone in the dark wood is the fifth full-length release from west philly-based solo artist tara burke aka fursaxa who boasts a fan base with the likes of bardo pond, acid mothers temple and thurston moore who released a record by her on his ecstatic peace! imprint.

a previous member of the band un, burke is now one of the epicentres and key collaborators of the north american free-folk movement, along with such luminaries as jack rose, charalambides, ben chasny and the jewelled antler collective. with her hypnotic, echo-y churchbell chanting, burke possesses a power-filled vocal sound that harkens back not only to those other polar queens of disaffected freakout psychedelia nico and barbara manning, but she is also akin to and inspired by hildegard von bingen, the 12th-century benedictine mystical abbess.

with the low drone of chord organ and farfisa, detuned ringing guitar, and endlessly looped, multiply-tracked vocals applied with heaps of delay, fursaxa sounds like a tripped-out medievalist perched upon a poppy petal. alone in the dark wood, recorded half in pennsylvania, half in finland, evokes pale moonlight and deep shadows, where tree limbs bend to form cathedral arches over a procession of mystics. disembodied female voices rise like sacral fire-smoke amongst the strum of mandolin, balalaika, and the piper's call of bells and flute-whistle. at some turns mournful and stark, at others a celebratory invocation, alone in the dark wood displays burke's alchemical knack for turning folk into lo-fi, and then into sheer psych and back again, but more importantly, her music is pure humming narcosis.

alexander tucker “old fog” compact disc

hag stones (5:12)
old fog (5:49)
the patron saint of troubled men (4:51)
phantom rings (7:00)
alahdeff music (5:47)
of late (5:22)
welsh harp (1:57)
hand of reign (7:14)
sung into your brightening skull (5:09)

atp/recordings press release...

alexander tucker is a new signing to atp recordings and his new full-length album old fog illustrates his use of field recordings and tape loops.

tucker began as vocalist in post-rock hardcore five piece unhome. in late 1999, tucker went on to tour with detroit space rockers fuxa, developing a shambolic approach to acoustic and free-noise electric guitar while beginning to play solo shows using tape loops, detuned guitar, dictaphones and field recordings processed through fx pedals.

in early 2000 tucker recorded a solo album of acoustic finger-plucking, spooked vocals and psych-electronics, which was picked up by tom greenwood of jackie-o-motherfucker and released under his u-sound archives label.

old fog is a delicate and beautiful record that feels like a soundtrack to a winter evening, evoking an eerie feeling that haunts listeners to seek more. his commanding performance as a musician has led to invitations to play guest guitar slots with the likes of jackie-o motherfucker, sunn0))) and bardo pond. his solo live shows are also a powerful document -- tucker shows that playing alone with a 4-track can sometimes be more effective than many live bands offer.

white out / jim o’rourke / william winant “china is near” compact disc

ghost mirror image (13:07)
lost in grey (6:28)
stifled moom (2:15)
mutinous (9:10)
the empty center (5:38)
favorite jungle (7:36)

atp/recordings press release...

china is near by new york's pioneer experimental group white out, represents their third album and promises to be their most adventurous release to date.

this session busts out of the gate, and careens all over the tonal soundscape zagging from icy calm to furious insurrection in sixty seconds. the estimable talents of multi-instrumentalist lin culbertson and drummer tom surgal are fused with the efforts put forth by master eclectic jim o'rourke, their frequent collaborator in recent years. rounding out the session is special guest william winant, the supremely gifted percussionist who has worked with everyone from john cage to yo yo ma to sonic youth.

the unorthodox instrumentation (analog synthesizers, drums, autoharp, bells, chains, timpani, vibes, scrap metal, springs, gong, etc.) employed by these maverick innovators, helps to create an electro-acoustic collage like no other. the electronic cries and soul stirring blips of the synthesizers, accompanied by the spectral strains of the autoharp, emphatically combine with the clang, spit and growl of the extended percussion. the listener is instantly transported to another sonic realm altogether. a space place where dark mystery resides and possibility is infinite.

atp/recordings press release...

reissue of jackie-o-motherfucker's 2001 liberation, originally released on road cone

this album was highly acclaimed for its superior production, and marks the band's slow move towards more song-oriented and loosely-composed material. it's a dreamier, organic, more transitional record that proudly displays jackie-o's emotional sophistication and ever-expansive chops.

multi-intrumentalists tom greenwood and jef brown and various jackie-o collective members use vibraphone, fiddle, organ, turntables, sitar and reed to augment and illustrate a variant cacaphony, even dipping into free-jazz territory. liberation picks up where fig. 5 left off, except with more lone, anthemic post-rock simultaneously invoking elements of spaceman 3, can, dirty three, derek bailey, the art ensemble of chicago and amon düül.

far more hazy than their previous releases, liberation cemented the band as an ever-revolving cast of collaborators willing to participate in a free-flowing experiment in free-jazz, folk, psych-rock, post-rock, and distorted americana.

this is the 2003 atp recordings 2cd reissue of the masterful wow, originally released in 2000 on fisheye (uk) and the magick fire music originally released in 1999 on ecstatic peace! (us).

since 1994, jackie-o-motherfucker have been a spiraling collective, inspired by an impossibly diverse array of sound and vision -- free jazz and rock, graffiti, space rock, folk music, xerox art, text/sound art, hip-hop, performance and video art, electronic and primitive music, you name it. these two releases paired together exemplify the best of jackie-o's explosive sprawl and electric bombast. textured horns, acid guitars, effects buzz, violins, ambient noodling, flutes, turntables and saxophones, jackie-o bring out all the stops for a combination of releases that truly exemplifies the true nature of their whirling, rotating 10-member miasma.
