The 2nd release from Jason Kahn, here on voice and resonator guitar, with Christian Wolfarth on Chinese Cymbal, an antique marching snare and objects, recorded after a series of concerts across Europe in the fall of 2019, Kahn applying a percussionist's perspective to his guitar by playing it as a lap slide, as the two invoke an unusual incantatory spirit from their improvisations.
Format: LP Condition: New Released: 2020 Country: Switzerland Packaging: LP in Hand Painted Sleeves Recorded at Kunstraum Walcheturm, in Zurich, Switzerland, on December 22nd, 2019, by Jason Kahn.
"Second LP from the duo Jason Kahn / Christian Wolfarth. Two improvised pieces recorded direct and undedited on the evening of December 22, 2019 in Zurich. Kahn's vocals positioned somewhere between field holler, muezzin call and the work of Henri Chopin; his slide guitar at once reminiscent of Son House and the instruments of Harry Partch. Wolfarth's snare playing explores the microsounds of percussion, often coming across more electronic than acoustic in nature, yet always harking back to the swing and forward propulsion of the great jazz drummers."-Editions
