This is a retrospective compendium of Fred's work over the last 17 years, with a lot of new material, perfectly put together and exceptionally listenable start to finish- an enlightening journey. It's my favourite of Fred's works in recent times. Close composition for electric and acoustic resources, tapework, concrete constructions, songs, sound effects and noise-art improvisations. Guests inc- Iva Bittova, Tom Cora, Jean Derome, Haco, Tim Hodgkinson, Lasse Hollmer, Rene Lussier, Bob Ostertag, Zeena Parkins and John Zorn.)
