Recorded live at Tokyo University in 2006, this third chapter of the "Signal to Noise" series (now at vol. 6) features the core trio of Jason Kahn (analog synth, percussion), Günter Müller (ipod, percussion, electronics) and Norbert Möslang (cracked everyday-electronics). Now, this is one of those rare live improv sessions where you can't really tell one performer apart from the other, and I mean it in a positive sense. While other expanded line-ups of the "Signal to Noise" adventure seem to open up the sound and make it more expanded and erratic, this trio recording focuses on rhythm. Don't expect regular beats, of course (I still dream of a techno album by Müller, but I digress), but rather a primordial pulse which disintegrates in a thousand particles, though never losing its flow. High-end bleeps, crackles and electronics gurgles seem to mimick bird chants (track 2), or collide before boiling down to a low-end swamp (track 3), only to reassemble in the almost steady beat of the final track. A great performance by an amazingly cohesive and sympathetic trio, possibly one of the best improv ensembles around today.
