Doldrums - Desk Trickery - Alternative - CD

Doldrums occur in equatorial regions where the water is at a dead calm. Musically, it's what happens when a computer meets a mixing board and silicon meets cathode. Almost the opposite from the origin of the word, loops and samples churn in digital currents, at times droney, at others filled with liquid movement. Traditional instruments are almost unrecognizable throughout most of this recording, processed and fed through mathematical equations to disfigurement. Vocals are kept at bay while stray rhythms encourage improvisation.
