Charley Friedman's Soundtracks for the Present Future Plays the Music of Dereck Higgins

jbonejacon This is such a fun way to listen to this music! Calling up John Cage and Eugene Chadborne. Just love it! I'm a real fan of For German Friends now, especially the way that it flows out of Close in the prepared guitars version. I was doing some cabinet refurbishing and it really helped me to slow down and be present with every staple I removed.

about

Charley Friedman: Soundtracks for the Present Future is an immersive auditory installation that combines over 70 second-hand guitars, mandolins, and basses to create a singular instrument. Suspended from the ceiling in a cluster, the instruments form a labyrinth of sounds and vibrations that perpetually shifts as viewers navigate the work. I was commissioned to write some music for the exhibit and it is presented here along with the original studio versions of the pieces.
