Minneapolis-based label Innova Recordings has released my latest CD, "Steam-Powered Mars Lander" http://www.innova.mu/artist1.asp?skuID=324 , featuring Chris Mascara, Michael Bloom, Jon Proudman, 2KJB, and Mac Randall. I am very proud of this release, as it has some of my most adventurous, out-there playing, with several moments of unashamed prettiness.
The instrumental space guitar madness may reassemble your molecules, so do not blame me if you develop phosphorescent skin and begin to speak in strange languages. Thank me instead.
The idea was both simple and arduous: Frank Gerace, John DeGregorio, and yours truly started with 6 hours of my best live art/noise soundscapes, including solo looping, then mercilessly edited and mastered them down into one coherent, concise statement. Thanks, Frank and John, for your patience.
Thanks also to my aforementioned guest artists. It was an honor to be challenged by their brilliant playing, which forced me to play beyond myself. (I love when that happens!)
For those of you who have been waiting for me to shut up an' play my guitar, here's your CD! Put your money where your mouth is. ;-)
...and don't forget our previous Innova release, "No Such Animal," with saxophone god Ken Field http://innova.mu/artist1.asp?skuID=251 , and my CDs of actual honest-to-g*d rock songs: "Birth of Monsters" and "The Un-Stableboy" http://cdbaby.com/all/timgoat
