Phinney Jackson McGee - Ditch
53 minutes
List of Cassettes, Ordering info, and Trades
Chris Phinney and Michael Jackson recorded many great tapes of experimental music under the name Cancerous Growth, including Beginning Of A New Age (1987), Desecration & Fornication (1988), Smokosphere (1988), Growth On The Beach (1988), Husk (1992), and at least eight others that I count in my collection. Jackson and Phinney were also members of Memphis, Tennessee's Southern Space Rock band Viktimized Karcass. So, I was quite happy to have an opportunity to record with this duo during my June 1990 visit to Memphis.
We loaded up on the requisite amount of smokeable substances and took off for the outer limits of space and time on these two 26 minute free improvisations. Chris, Mike and I cranked up Phinney's arsenal of analog synthesizers (Moog Rogue, ARP Axxe, Moog Prodigy), applied a liberal dose of delay and reverb effects -- and created "Ditch" and "Escarpment". Abstract electronic sound paintings that build slowly over time, and then careen off in all kinds of different directions.
Recorded live June 16, 1990 at Harsh Reality Studio. Originally released on my Electronic Cottage label.
