Negative Positive
Title: An underground recording, literally.
Review: The Deep Listening Band's modus operandi is the sonic exploration of music interacting with space, incorporating space as an instrument, in this case, a 186 foot diameter concrete cylinder known as the Fort Worden Cistern. The recording site offers an unusual acoustic space with pure reverberation but no discernable slap echoes. This acoustic quality allows the listener to mentally "map" the sound space in a listener-created reality, with a slow-motion, otherworldly blending of voices and instruments unfolding in a liquid sonic boomerang.
