JOHN DUNCAN / SCHEINTOT

Split 33RPM LP | iDEAL 284
Edition: 200 on black/transparent splatter vinyl
Design: Daniel Löwenbrück

John Duncan's "SAXMIX" is one massive piece of contemporary experimental music, which lets noise collide with free jazz and extreme minimalism. Duncan is a master when it comes to these things, and he is an artists constantly evolving, mutating and challenging. The sax thing then? JD has invited some of his fav sax players to collaborate with him; Mats Gustafsson, Antoine Chessex, Martin Escalante, Dror Feiler and Ulrich Krieger. Did I say MASSIVE? Well, it is.

Scheintot is a new trio consisting of Mats Gustafsson (sax/flute), Henrik Rylander (mixing desk) and myself on Korg MS20 which might be my fav synth ever, or right now at least. This is weird stuff. Not sure where this is going but I guess you will enjoy it if you are into stuff we have done before, but this sits comfortably in its own corner, not smart enough to be ashamed over sounding so infected.

Nice cover by Tochnit Aleph boss Daniel Löwebrück. Hot stuff, basically!
