Images used for two CD covers for jazz bassist Rueben Radding:
Intersections, Pine Ear Music, Fall 2005
Fugitive Pieces, Pine Ear Music, Winter 2005
Review of CD in Paris Transatlantic: “An increasing number of musicians and listeners are looking upon traditional free jazz as a stylistic cul-de-sac, and bassist Reuben Radding confronts the problem head on with this new disc on his own Pine Ear imprint. Assembling an ensemble of players at the vanguard of process- and texture-oriented improv, Radding spearheads a program of music that borrows from electro-acoustic and ambient musics, even though the instrumentation at first glance suggests a conventional jazz combo. … Radding’s bass suggests the creak of wind-blown rigging on a sea-faring clipper. Drones and grainy scrapes abound, as well as lulls into near-silence. It’s a standout performance, and the piece’s marathon 32-minute length feels fully justified. A word of praise is due too for the cover art by Susan Bowen: the images of junkyard materials recombined into new architectural configurations beautifully complement the music.–DT”
