CALLAHAN, JACK - Music From Airports
"Edition of 100. Amherst resident solo percussionist and booker of countless basement shows. His music aims to create a total sonic takeover of the space, always by employing silence to gather souls towards a complete ecstatic takeover. (Or, sometimes by). Sometimes you will ask, Is this record still playing"? Yes it is still playing. -Feeding Tube\r\n"Bewitching set of ultra-sparse solo percussion music from western mass provider-of-said jack callahan ... having caught jack completely immobilize a room full of partially-to-wholly inebriated concert-goers a few weeks back doing this exact set of music, i can safely say hes committed to the art-form long-term (cant even count how many meehan-acolytes ive heard breeze \r\nthrough town, only to pop up again backing some schmuck playing _¢‚Ǩ_ìhypnagogic chillwave_¢‚Ǩ¬ù a month or two later) ; as a rule, silence is golden & jack uses it here to maximum effect, with each stray session of agitated snare-drum surface cut with a good buffer of _¢‚Ǩ_ìreflection time_¢‚Ǩ¬ù in either direction ... works beautifully as a record (thanks largely to bhob raineys sympathetic mastering job) ; havent heard a more patience-requiring record in a minute, this one delivers". -Keith Fullerton Whitman
