Matt Choboter: Postcards of Nostalgia
Couldn't load pickup availability
Inspired by LaMonte Young and John Cage and sounding like Eve Risser and Benoît Delbecq, Choboter uses a newly invented tuning system, magnetic preparations and ethereal electronics to evoke subliminal landscapes between post-jazz, ambient electronic and Balinese Gamelan music.
The album invites one to reflect into the deep past whether on a personal or collective scale. On a personal level, the music reflects on Choboter’s travels to various places. On a collective scale, “Postcards of Nostalgia” might describe the awe-inspiring Upper Paleolithic cave art.

Reviews:
"It is fascinating to follow Choboter on his wanderings in the forests of his hometown. It's almost like we can see the wild nature for ourselves, hear bears and wolves and other creatures found in the Canadian primeval forests, and join him on a tour with a musical guide. An exciting and interesting record from a musician, composer and, not least, improviser." - Jan Granlie, Salt Peanuts*
