Wrekmeister Harmonies: Recordings Made in Public Spaces - Vol. 1
Robinson, per l'occasione, si è avvalso di plurime e distinte collaborazioni: da musicisti heavy metal (molto presenti nelle sonorità finali del CD), noise, post-rock a jazz come David Yow (Jesus Lizard/Scratch Acid), Mark Shippy e Pat Samson (US Maple), Azita Youssefi, John Herndon e Jeff Parker (Tortoise), Keefe Jackson, per arrivare agli sperimentatori Fred Lonberg-Holm e Ken Vandermark. Insomma un bel riassunto di improvvisatori e rumoristi che non rinunciano al loro carattere in sede di registrazione!
Le tre lunghe tracce del Wrekmeister Harmonie, "Pittsburgh," "Paris," "New York" [registrate nelle diverse sedi del Andy Warhol Museum di Pittsburgh, Pompidou di Parigi, Guggenheim e P.S.I. Contemporary Art Center di New York, Getty Museum di Los Angeles e Art Center di Berlino] sono un ibrido in tutti i sensi e per tutte le orecchie, proprio perchè sono la risultante in forma musicale di fattori musicali ed extra-musicali.
Non più musica d'aeroporto, non solo collages sonori, non tanto musica sperimentale... Recordings Made in Public Spaces è un intruglio sonoro di tutto ciò con un'anima sorprendentemente noir, metallica, stridula, ma con una sua cifra poetica molto evidente.
