jason lescalleet / due process “combine xxi, xxii” ten inch single record

  • combine xxi (10:15)

  • combine xxii (10:20)
click the play button to hear an excerpt of "combine xxii"
late july 2007 release; the follow-up to the “combines xix xx” lp (also on we break more records) by jason lescalleet’s due process... comes complete as a 10” record inside a yellow/orange “78 sleeve”, inside a letter-pressed 10’ x 20” wraparound sleeve; deluxe.

... but enough about the object; let’s talk about the music... for the “combines” series, jason has been using extant/archival recordings of his due process duo with rrron “emil beaulieau” lessard as source material, building densely layered collages of plundered musique concrète, found sounds, and of course jason’s own in-situ magnetic tape-looping... in this case the source material is a recording of due process’ set opening for amm in boston on october 14th, 2000.

an amazing blast of plundered droning & more rampant string-destruction (listen to the sound-sample) - one of jason’s best outings. highly recommended !!!

jason lescalleet’s due process – combine xxi/xxii 10” vinyl record
cat. # we10-005

now available: july 2007

combine xxi, combine xxii is the second vinyl album documenting the ongoing collaboration between tape loop composer/destroyer jason lescalleet and ron lessard, aka noise legend emil beaulieau and head of the pioneering rrrecords label. while due process has been lessard’s longtime umbrella for collaborations (which previously have featured like-minded outsiders tom dimuzio and john wiggins), this current iteration of due process is an altogether different beast. using severely manipulated recordings of the duo’s ear-splitting live concerts, lescalleet creates a dense sound world, abstract and visceral. consisting of two sidelong pieces, by turns both brutal and beautiful, this latest record is a testament to lescalleet’s ability to recast rough sounds in his blurry, tape-distorted image.

lavishly printed on heavyweight lennox paper and lovingly letter-pressed by smudge ink in boston, this 10” record is limited to 300 copies.

wbm is a new artist-run label for electronic music, specializing in high quality, limited-run vinyl releases in handmade, silk screened and letter pressed packaging.

jason lescalleet / due process “combines xix xx” long playing record

  • combine xix
  • combine xx

due process has, historically, been the collaborative project of rrr-label head rrron lessard (aka emil beaulieau) and maine-based tape manipulator jason lescalleet... was curious about jason’s “top billing” before i actually spun the record; now all make perfect sense. this is certainly a jason-solo piece; room-length tape-loops of mystery, near-plunderphonic noises (recorded from the radio?) are allowed side-length spaces in which to meander...

“xix” is an especially dense bit of musique concrète, with the busy intro making way for an almost imperceptible build of low-rumble/slow silence before arcing into the climax at the end of the piece.

“xx”is constructed in a similar fashion, although for some reason the source material seems to be classic electro-acoustic music (the main theme; i.e. the most recognizable sound from michel chion’s “requieum”; itself a plunderphonicization of radio static and orchestral themes, jumps out of the mix, unaltered, at one point.)

of all of the people that have relied on the electronic tools of years past in order to capture the wonder of all those pre-1983 electronic music timbres, jason is probably my favorite. he has a keen grasp on compositional form, and this is what ultimately makes his music stand out from the waves of eai & noise players that he’s often associated with. of jason’s solo work i’ve yet heard (an lp on rrr, a recent cd on cut) this one takes the cake. phenomenal.
