Quixotism (10th Anniversary Remaster)
Oren Ambarchi classic 'Quixotism', 2014, an album of pulsing, searching productions underpinned by Thomas Brinkmann's computable drums plus Jim O'Rourke (synth), crys cole (contact mics, brushes), Eyvind Kang (bowed gender & violas), John Tilbury (piano) and more.
The session unfolds with a preternaturally hypnotic logic, consolidating a wealth of contributions from the aforementioned lineup, plus U-zhaan (tabla) and the Icelandic Symphony Orchestra, with co-production and engineering handled by Randall Dunn.
We really should have learnt by 2014 when this album came out to expect the unexpected from Ambarchi - on that same year alone he released candid field recordings, a bar brawl catalyst, and a 13-minute remix of FIS - but still we couldn’t have anticipated that he would have produced what is essentially a new pinnacle of techno meets avant-garde/new composition.
In testament to his compositional sparks, he creates wide-open fields of sound with a clear democracy of space keeping each element in equilibrium around the base motorik revs in an elegant play of forward momentum and chamber-like stasis. It’ll just completely side-swipe whatever you were expecting - and honestly, thats a pretty rare thing these days. Bravo, pal.
