Compact disc.
Uptown psychedelia -- Scene from a French zoo -- Vaccination (for Thomas Mann) -- Intrusions -- Whole earth tascam -- GRM blue I -- GRM blue II -- Racist drone -- Grey geisha -- Instrumental tourist -- Ritual for consumption -- Vaccination no. 2.
Performed by Tim Hecker and Daniel Lopatin.
With a deliberate focus on source material of a synthetic and mimetic nature, Hecker and Lopatin designed a sound palette from the acoustic resonance of digitally-sourced 'Instruments of the World'. The studio meetings between them were conducted to mimic the tropes and techniques of jazz-based improvisation, with little preparation prior.
"The sparks fly on Instrumental Tourist, as the album's soundscapes hypnotize, jar, fascinate and even annoy."--NPR Music.
