On August 6, the new album by Gate* called 'iterations' will be released. After last year's 'no exit' and 'discomfort,' both recordings of solo improvisations, this is the first album of the project as a duo.
Gate's music is somewhere in between free music (or free jazz) and noise, with important influences from industrial, drone, and Japanese and other traditional music. All releases by the project are unaltered (except for fade in/out) recordings of free improvisation sessions without scores, plans, predetermined ideas, or second takes.
