Having previously collaborated with reedists (Fred Anderson, Kyle Bruckmann, Nicole Mitchell, Ken Vandermark, Mars Williams) and with various trios (bassists Harrison Bankhead, Josh Abrams; cellist Fred Lonberg-Holm; percussionists Avreeyal Ra, Michael Zerang), Baker set himself the seemingly-paradoxical task of recording an album of free improvisations - on both piano and analogue synthesizer - which would have a \"somewhat or somehow tuneful\" character. Baker has been described as \"deeply unusual.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Watching the Interstate \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Tolled Deadpan \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Tocsin Du Jour \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Happenedstance \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Post-Industrial Societies and Their Precursors \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Infinity Trap Blues \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Is It Still Mime If They're Deaf? \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Mourning Doves \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Grey Comedy \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Hobbesian's Choice \u003cbr\u003e1.11 More Questions Than Answers \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Airstrip Vespers \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Through the Woods, Over the River\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
