CHORA

'Chora’s sound touches on a bunch of instant-music strategies, referencing world music modes, free jazz, the dense scattershot style of Aster, the primitive string drones of Chie Mukai...Pointillist violence...Junkyard gamelan...'
HESSDALEN
Mystery solo project of designer/artist/musician James Taylor. Using field recordings gathered on his travels around the globe, from Mongolian yurt encounters to Hong Kong hustle and bustle he weaves an electronic environment with analog synth, fx pedals, samples and lapsteel.
