Product Type: COMPACT DISCS
UPC: 602547088697
Genre: Jazz
2015 release from the ever-intrepid guitarist, producer, improviser, film composer and soundscape artist. David Torn returns with Only Sky, an album that explores the far sonic edges of what one man and a guitar can create, a solo recording of almost orchestral atmosphere. It is Torn's first ECM release since 2007s acclaimed Prezens, a full-band project that Jazzwise described as "a vibrating collage full of shimmering sonic shapes, a dark, urban electronic soundscape a potent mix of jazz, free-form rock and technology that is both demanding and rewarding." Many of those same descriptors apply to Only Sky, with it's hovering ambient shadows and vaulting flashes of light, it's channeling of deep country/blues memories and Burroughsian dreams of North Africa. Recorded in the acoustically apt hall of the Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center in upstate New York (and then sorted and mixed in Torn's own mad-scientist lair), Only Sky is an album to get lost in, over and again.
