Alexei Borisov & Jeffrey Surak – ulitsa Novatorov (mini CD)




A music collaboration featuring: Alexei Borisov (Russian musician) and Jeffrey Surak (veteran experimenter from Washington, DC’ USA). This mini CD was released on `the locus of assemblage`, circa 2003 (like the dinosaurs, it’s extinct, gone, sold-out i.e. there`s no more copies left). I love the feeling of owning limited editions recordings (mine reads 53/200). It feels like I`m holding something rare, something unique. Anyways you`d like to know what this sounds like, right? Here goes:
1 – radioalmaata (9.22 minutes) = abstract ambience with electroacoustic undertones (nice use of Russian voice samples).
2 – zaraza (4.07 minutes) = minimal electronic works mixed with peaceful drones = highly meditative and relaxing stuff (doesn`t sound like that Montréal electronic / doom metal / symphonic / industrial / devil worshipping / rock band  named… you guessed it Zaraza).
3 – poste banketa (2.53 minutes) = experimental ambient noise with some nice lo-fi drones thrown in for good measure.

4 – no reply (4.34 minutes) = sonic experimentations mixed with drones and strange ambient noise  = schizophrenic mood music for inner turmoil.
