Editor's info:
A project initiated by Chicago-based sound artist J.R. Robinson who has spent the past few years creating ambient soundscapes within major museums all over the globe, working (among others) with the Guggenheim Museum in New York, the Getty Museum in Los Angeles and Paris' Centre Pompidou. "Robinson has injected these recordings into collaborations with some like-minded heavy hitters from the noise, post-rock and jazz worlds such as David Yow (Jesus Lizard/Scratch Acid), Mark Shippy & Pat Samson (US Maple), Azita Youssefi, John Herndon & Jeff Parker (Tortoise), Keefe Jackson, Fred Lonberg-Holm and Ken Vandermark. The result (dubbed Wrekmeister Harmonies), is a distinctive hybrid of sound art and avant-garde musics, evoking the essences & influences of masterworks like Joe McPhee's Nation Time, Lou Reed's Metal Machine Music and the sound collages of Stockhausen."
