Reflections, Vol1 (A Noise Akin to a Flight of Deranged Swallows in Combat) is my first release of improvised duets (and the 4th piece is a trio, which breaks the rule).
The name came from my friend Scott Hamptopn (a.ka. Exaltron) who took it from a review of one of my Metal Machine Trio performances. I love it, and I loved the idea of having a band with an absurdly long name.
Exaltron is featured on the last track, playing trumper, guitar, guitar-bass, and live looping madness.
The third track, Softly Questioning, because the main melody used in the film ‘Poughkeepsie’ written and directed by Joe Kelly.
