Manafon

Recorded across London, Vienna, and Tokyo, this incredibly demanding avant-garde release features highly prominent electroacoustic improvisation supporting the artist's spoken-word poetry. Assembling luminaries of the free-improv scene like Christian Fennesz and Evan Parker, the instrumentation is sparse, unpredictable, and devoid of traditional pop structure. It acts as one of the most challenging, starkly beautiful meditations in his late-career catalog.
