about

This is the first entry in a potentially recurring series of analog sound experiments drawing vague elements of inspiration from absurdist literature, precisionist art, and the brutalist architecture of New York City.

Each of these pieces was played on a piano, recorded to cassette tape, and then manipulated, whether by feeding the tape back through various analog effects equipment or by damaging and distressing the tape itself.

The results are not pretty, but it was a fun series of experiments. I don't expect anyone will really listen to or enjoy this but I find it really pleasant music to read by, and thus, I am satisfied.

released July 12, 2020

All pieces were written/improvised, recorded, mixed, and mastered by Matt Lombardi, except "v mlhách (andante)" [trans. 'in the mists'] which was originally written by Leoš Janáček. This rendition was poorly performed and subsequently ruined beyond recognition by Matt. Regardless of this affront to Mr. Janáček, I am obliged to give credit where credit is due. I mean no harm; I adore this piece with my whole heart.

Cover art also by Matt.
