oximetric by spike mason

"The object is not the random juxtaposition of hostile pieces of music, but the creation of something entirely natural, despite its divergent pulses and harmonies. So even if the bass is playing one thing, the drums another, and the horns something else, the result is not a jumble of sounds but often a strange serenity, with points of convergence. Rather than being unrelentingly busy, the multiple layers tend towards discerning restraint, engendering a blend of beauty and tension."
John Shand - Sydney Morning Herald

This album was my first adventure into oximetric multi-pulsed music where at times each member of the ensemble played within their own unrelated pulse.
