Some of the best music I've ever listened to.

Love the production in general. Everything sounds great. Drums (esp snare), Keys, Guitar.. not to mention the performance/composition. Loving it! (came here from CanOpener App page)

Produced by Colin Stewart (Black Mountain, Cave Singers) at The Hive in Vancouver, Oh Fortune carries collaborations from many esteemed improvisational and experimental musicians including Eyvind Kang (Beck, Bill Frisell, Marc Ribot, John Zorn), Jesse Zubot (Nels Cline, Mats Gustafsson), Gord Grdina (Gary Peacock, Paul Motian), Kenton Loewen (Mats Gustafsson, Jerry Granelli), JP Carter (Fond Of Tigers, Inhabitants) and Peggy Lee (Wayne Horvitz, Veda Hille).

Currents of mortality, isolation, and desperation run through the album, and yet its title comes from a reflection of a ticker-tape parade celebrating the return of Gertrude Ederle to the United States in 1926. For a heartbeat, she was the country’s biggest celebrity. She had just become the first woman to swim the English Channel, and simultaneously the new world-record holder (previously held by a man).

There exists in Oh Fortune this chaos of juxtaposition. It could be taken as a sad or dark album, yet musically it kicks with more ferocity and tenacity than people may expect from Mangan. It debates melancholy while it anticipates incredible moments of glory and victory. It’s not sad, it’s simply honest.
