notes

Sour Mash was composed during a collaborative residency sponsored by Harvestworks, Inc. The work is being released on vinyl and on compact disc, offering two different-but-related experiences. Both versions offer listening and performative possibilities. Each side of the vinyl disc functions as a standalone composition by one of the artists. With two copies of the vinyl, a third collaborative composition emerges; start points on both sides of the record are provided to facilitate this. The two vinyl sides can also be understood as an open-ended composition, or palette, for further creative recombination by one or multiple performers. The compact disc version offers both artists’ sides, as well as a synchronized mix of the two. Of course, one could deploy the compact disc version in performative ways as well. The composers anticipate just such an outcome. Created, mixed and mastered at Harvestworks, Inc. between November 2008 and February 2009.
