february 2011 release ; ... here & below are three further titles on steve lowenthal (& for this batch working with the aid of thin wrist’s peter kolovos) ’s vin du select qualitite series, documenting approaches to contemporary acoustic guitar music from lanes reverent to (steve’s an unabashed fahey acolyle ; has been working on a fahey book for ages) but largely outside of the staid post-takoma sector ...

this set from six parts seven guitarist allen karpinski shares mark mcguire’s approach ; acoustics are sent packing through various time-based effects, yielding some nice spectral smearing & convolution of the rich steel-string tones ...

  • once was, is once again (part ii)
february 2011 release ; ... the pleasant surprise of the batch is this extended piece from ohio polyglot (in addition to his learned fingerstyle, he’s an avid field recordist, with a disc on greg davis’ “autumn leaves” series & a forthcoming set of electronic music for the john “outer space” elliott-run editions mego sub-label spectrum spools) matthew mullane (aka fabric) ...

this one unfurls in a perfectly organic way, with the two side-length variations rife with dynamic changes & long, spare sections of rubato phrasing(s) ... excellent stuff !!!

vdsq - 004
matthew mullane

this recording came to us as an unsolicited demo and was a revelation in its intricate beauty and unique phrasings. hailing from small town ohio, this young player encapsulates everything exciting about modern composition for acoustic guitar. performed live in one take. no overdubs.

mark mcguire “vdsq • solo acoustic volume two” long playing record

  • at first sight
  • vitamins
  • second thoughts

  • front porch breeze
  • burning leaves
october 2009 release ; don’t let the title fool you (as it did me) ... mark doesn’t so much drop his version of the takoma sound here inasmuch as offer a solo variant on the echoplexed guitar styles that he uses when anchoring emeralds’ time-space drift (think “e2-e4” with a bit more in the way of modal development) ... only here fretted on what sounds like an ovation run through an arsenal of time-based effects & layers upon layers of overdubbed & multi-tracked parts ...

much more linear & melodic than emeralds ever gets, just a hair away from mid-period popol vuh in it’s tonality and/or approach ... nice stuff !!!

mark mcguire vdsq - solo acoustic volume two
