Album Notes & Community Reviews
An incredibly unique, deeply unsettling exploration of involuntary speech and the subconscious mind. Robert Ashley鈥檚 'Automatic Writing' weaves barely audible, whispered vocalizations with remarkably subtle electronic textures and musique concr猫te tape effects, creating a profoundly mysterious, highly surreal, and hypnotic avant-garde soundscape.
