Our upcoming album, The Promise of Chaos, is in production and will be released later this year. The world moves so swiftly these days that my recent precognitive poetry is already more like biting historical commentary. Michel and I are co-composing with a myriad of instruments and digital tools and layers of recordings from decades of improvised music with outstanding musicians. It is a collaborative composition of collage that will celebrate creative outbursts such as Michel’s recycled can sculpture<\/a> and evocative recordings from, for example, Barre Phillip’s chapel in the Var.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michel has stepped back from teaching so with this freer schedule we are taking this opportunity to travel off season for inspiration and creative renewal. And I am participating in a dream research project that has me seeing in the dark for days at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So when we don’t need to figure out how best to cope with a possible invasion of Canada, how to survive as a family of artists when arts funding is cut or going to the military, how to understand what retirement means when no one has a pension even after working for decades, then we will get back to work soon. This album, like so many on our Jazz from Rant music label<\/a>, is self-funded and don’t worry, at least one of these issues is very nearly solved. In the meantime you can listen to a series of tracks composed for this project that are already released.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
