PURE. TRANSCENDENTAL. BLACK METAL. TECHNO.
Tim Barnes’ 2019 full-length: DE∆D-LOOP (AMI 038R/W), offered another arm in Barnes’ wide-ranging body of music and work, as well as supplying an additional thread connecting the electronic dance music, pop and sound art conversations the album engages.
In many ways DE∆D-LOOP is House music that takes a sideways approach to the language of dance music. As both a concept and a practice, Barnes aims to turn it on its side, reconsidering its structure and form. The tracks on DE∆D-LOOP reflect Barnes’ status as a renowned percussionist, offering rhythms and textures that both draw the listener in and maintain a spatial and temporal distance/uncertainty.
Since 1995, Tim Barnes has been internationally acclaimed as a musician, having played with a range of artists including Tony Conrad, Ikue Mori, Sonic Youth, Glenn Kotche, P.G. Six, Mike Watt, Royal Trux, Stereolab, Jim O’Rourke, Beth Orton, among others. Working across both genre and instrumentation, Barnes’ singular history as a musician reflects his versatile ear and performance range.
DE∆D-LOOP is an installment of Amish’s in-house label Required Wreckers, pairing music and sound art with visual artists who share a thematic or process-based methodology. DE∆D-LOOP features the work of American-born and French-based artist/filmmaker Erick Baudelaire’s ‘Blind Walls’ series.
Released December 27, 2019
