Mood Organ – Visiting a Burning Museum [CD on Debacle/digital on Aphonia]

    [Mason] forges études that recall the sublime tranquility of Terry Riley, the penetrating, disorienting exactitude of Morton Subotnick, and the lonely, stark blues of Loren Mazzacane Connors. Mood Organ’s Visiting a Burning Museum (Debacle Records) achieves the impressive feat of creating pieces that induce both meditation and a profound existential dread. This is music for peering inward into your mind and soul and pondering life’s big questions.
    -Dave Segal, The Stranger

    Mason inscribes his music with poetic details that reward headphone listening: lonesome guitar, rustles of wind, swelling tones, and keyboards that sound like they’re underwater, blurred by shivering eddies and ripples.
    -Chris Delaurenti, The Stranger

    To me, Mood Organ has this Philip K. Dickian vibe of like some kind of biofeedback machine to make you a better human.
    -Mike Pursley, Foxy Digitalis
