Thomas Wincek : Extended Techniques
SF-6009 : 28.07.08
Format : EP
Madison, Wisconsin's Thomas Wincek takes a break here from his other musical projects (All Tiny Creatures, Collections of Colonies of Bees, and
Emotional Joystick) to explore the practice of extended technique. As Wincek discusses in the release's liner notes, the term is used here to refer
not only to traditional physical techniques (e.g. hitting strings with chopsticks instead of plectrums) but also digital processing techniques. While
pure experimentation drives the conceptual nature of the project, the resulting tracks are gorgeously melodic, straddling a fine line between
composition and improvisation.
