bind me, take me, amplifier, humidifier is about heartening backgrounds: the background radiations of existence, both aural and psychological, against which I live, subconsciously buoyed by their referential baseline, only noticing them when they're gone, a noticing which manifests as desperation, longing, and an awe at the dutiful devotion with which their work is carried out. This music is as much about the performers' familiarity with and trust in each other, and me, as it is about the specific sounds they make.
