GUESSWORK's "Head Crash" available on digital and ltd cassette at
https://tooluse.bandcamp.com/album/head-crashAn accrual of crumbling electronics and slow feedback, "Head Crash" exists on the brink of collapse – just before fluctuating waveforms fall into interference. "Head Crash" offers a compounded extrapolation of the variables present, without committing to any one of them – placing itself and the listener at a crossroads where multiple directions feel simultaneously possible. GUESSWORK reduces the role of the composer – emphasizing material that emerges without overt intervention, with the primary movement being the migration of the listener's attention around the stereo field.
liminal states, hard drive failure, hypnopedia, fatigue, close listening, persistence, minimal intervention
