Nathan Salsburg - Landwerk '2020

Tracks list

Nathan Salsburg's Landwerk via No Quarter.

"These pieces are the products of late Winter '19/Spring '20 at home in Kentucky
and, though they've come to take on a variety of new personal resonances,
especially here in Pandemic Season, they owe their existence to me being
belatedly hipped in 2019 to The Caretaker's "An Empty Bliss Beyond This World"
-- the most emotionally effective re-use of 78-rpm records I likely could have
imagined. That album nudged me to attempt a similar approach, locating melodic
fragments on 78s that could serve as bases for new compositions. The caveat
was/is that I am near entirely bereft at home-recording gear and skills, and
thus (conveniently) approached these pieces as experiments in restriction:
instruments are electric guitar, homemade lap-steel, and 78-rpm record samples.
No effects beyond those of the guitar amplifier and speed-/pitch-adjustments
applied to source recordings were used. - Nathan Salsburg."
