"Waiting In Poor Lighting" CS/Digital on Avant Archive

[billygomberg]

Just creeping out into the weird winter of 2012 is this new collection of tracks published by Avant Archive. Waiting In Poor Lighting introduces some less heavily computerized improvisations, focusing on analog textures given over to amplifiers and amplifier modeling, occasional location recordings hovering like a mirage.

the official line:

Billy Gomberg presents a magnetically warped version of warmth with this recent collection of four pieces. Over two sides, we get exposed to this kind of creeping mixture of hiss and drone that collaborate to create feelings of fondness and anxiety. Probing it reveals almost nothing, but experiencing it yields something wonderful. This music will creep up on you. You will find yourself loving it and wishing you could listen to it all the time. It is discordant and noisy at times, but the warmth makes it feel like a friend. Billy Gomberg is your new best friend.

Limited run on cassette available from Avant Archive.
Digital files available on Bandcamp.

well hey I love to hear that.  the materials are similar but that's not out of the ordinary - unlike the Rivers Home tracks, these weren't recorded in a big garage, and the MS20 I borrowed for those recordings was reclaimed by it's rightful owner...
