"not having heard the dropp ensemble's debut album and seeing that
they were from chicago and featured Ken Vandermark, it was somewhat
odd to see they had a record - Ingen Tid - on a label known for its heavy
avant garde cred. but hey, this septet, at least judged by the 2004 session
represented here, are an excellent group of sound generators. The two
pieces are abstract constructions seemingly dedicated to approximating
electronic tones by bending extended acoustic ones out of whack.
The subtle dislocations they create with this technique are lovely."
