Description

Need Thomas Windham - Employment Patterns

The debut solo release by Need Windham, founder of concrete agit-prop duo Presocratics (ex-Table of the Elements). A subtle new tape work constructed solely from the critically hated and rejected parts of Presocratics compositions, employment patterns places itself far from the reserved monochrome of its contemporaries, distinguished, with a sly nod to Morton Feldman, through terse probing of tonal degree and compositional identity. Need Windham's fluid pop sensibility glares through the work's structure; indeed, the piece positively emotes—frustration, joy, shame—a true political and personal agenda emerges in abstract.

Reviews

"[employment patterns] finds its sources in a curious combination of short-wave radio, guitar and piano, the effect being the feeling of someone slowly moving the dial on a vintage radio, finding static here and reception there, but never really settling on anything easily perceptible."

- John Knight, Flagpole Magazine

"It's quite a mysterious piece of work... with a sly elision of tension/release and presence/absence..."

- Nirav Soni, The Squid's Ear

"...minimal sounds and subtle drones... discreet and finely structured."

- Blow Up
