THINK OUT OF THE BOX
Anton Mobin

Middle Eight Recordings, 2020
AABA#19 / Archive Série
physical copies tba

Live studio recordings (no overdubs) realized between May and August 2018 by Anton Mobin at La Ferme Ta Gueule, Olivet, France.

Anton Mobin plays his self-built electroacoustic instrument called "Prepared Chamber" associated to a modified walkman with an unique endless cassette.

Those pieces were preparatory works recorded before a series of concerts in the second half of the year 2018.

Cheap analog looping and free improvised music in real time !
The manipulation of the two instrument-elements requires a lot of training and work on the mixer, in order to obtain the necessary dexterity to chain the ideas together in pure improvisation. Too much concentration and focus on the cassette player, capricious because modified, to the detriment of pure and hard playing on the instrument made me choose the option without this lo-fi looper device. However, I played a few times with it and the result was satisfactory; with Le Syndicat or guitarist Xavier Mussat.

This album or rather stage of work had received the attention of a label which does not decide any more to answer me, so come on ! I post it on line in this new series "archive" and will find later a issue to release it on cassette splited with two other projects like this one in a totally indigestible C90 !

Album title is inspired by a comment of Geert-Jan Hobijn on my work.
