about

The fifth volume of Hunter Diamond’s Metal and Wood series features Chicago drummer Quin Kirchner.

Specters of narrative sneak in and around the duo’s coalesced imagination: Unlocked drum grooves dancing along with sampled and manipulated textures of semi-recognizable origin. Cacophonous pulses of pre-historic assembly lines. A swaying bamboo forrest, testing the outer limits of minimalist duration-based melody. An audio time-lapse in a centuries old cathedral. Garish clarinet like a rare bird summoning its kin and revolting for release.

Perpetual unconscious orchestration finds the duo landing at textural and narrative poles: dreamy then driving, patient then frenzied, atmospheric then earthy, and always with an imaginative ear for emotional shift and shape.

Captured live at Chicago’s beloved home of creative music Experimental Sound Studio, this collection reflects a day-long exploration of the duo’s interest in texture and groove-based improvisations. Using an unpredictable combination of electronic and acoustic sound, one gets the feeling that the music could at any moment could lean into chaos or completely cool out.
