I don`t know if this is a free form live noise
improvisation or a collaboration (someone records a
skeleton track, then both artists take turns adding stuff, until completion).
On the website it reads that Zach Short (BBOA) is doing his thing while Dan
Reaves (TW) is doing what he does (whatever that means). A track featuring some
of my favorite Florida
noisers (along Meatball Machine & Mayan Apocalypse) you can`t go wrong here.
Blackwater uses a good dosage of distortion mixed with (in no particular
order): found sounds, beats, chaotic percussions, dark synth lines and is that
an accordion I hear in the background? The end result is a long (18.23 minutes)
piece of evolving experimental noise with melancholic undertones. When I
mention melancholic, I don`t mean light gothic stuff. I mean a kind of sad
sorrow i.e. melancholia, that`s all. I love long experimental noise pieces like
`blackwater`. You never get bored there`s always something fluctuating,
evolving, happening and that`s a good thing. Download it here:
We recorded this live, together in the same room. I'm a fan of Zach and what he brings to the table. We had a great time recording this.

This is amazing stuff, again. Would you like to do an interview perhaps?
