Ryan has always pushed me into exploring avenues of improvisation I may not have otherwise, and this album is no exception: improvising with another person not in the room with you. More for folks interested in experimental, noise, and improv genres.
From the description:
For this session, Stephen and Ryan (collectively known as the Abdomen) improvised multiple pieces of music at the same time (9AM) on the same morning (Saturday, Jan 2, 2024), but in separate cities (Stephen, Birmingham, and Ryan, Chickasaw, both Alabama). There were predetermined time cues and “mood” or “vibe” suggestions, including silences between pieces. Then, the tracks were thrown on top of one another. The players did not see or hear each other as they performed the pieces.
