Artists: Solomon Ge, composer
Released on Pinna, 2022
Solomon Ge writes “My piece expresses my thoughts and feelings about the state of the world during the pandemic, with all its chaos, turbulence, and loss of life.
I was very interested in the waves of dissonant overtones and the musical tension that could be generated from repeating a set of pitches very many times while holding down the pedal, and I wanted to use this effect to create a slowly morphing storm of sound, which erupts into violent climax before receding back once again.”
The cover art was also printed in poster format in a limited edition set of archival prints, with proceeds going to the Jed Foundation.
