Rewind

Artist: M. Sommers
Year: 2002

Notes: More experiments combining samples with recorded sounds. More efforts to blur the line between composing "songs" and creating "art". Bits of pop sensability percolating up through the noise. I became more interested in the "feel" of a piece, having the work tell me what it wants to be. For example: The opening track borrows the background vocals from "Video killed the radio star" and the bass line from Super Mario Bros. "Most people" and "Click it" were written with Jason Hendrickson. Bits of sound sculptures are sprinkled throughout. A Violent Femmes cover ("Please do not go", with Jason Hendrickson on keyboards), cut-ups from an 80's radio play (Mojo Sam), and the theme music for a Klipsch video series ("People @ Klipsch") complete this odd compilation of tracks.
