Tint
is the first new solo recording from
Joe Talia
in over a decade. Australian-born but now based in Tokyo, Talia is known to many listeners as a drummer (frequently collaborating both live and in the studio with artists such as
Oren Ambarchi
and
Jim O'Rourke
) and as a recording and mixing engineer responsible for dozens of releases across the fields of contemporary experimental music, wayward pop, and jazz. Alongside
James Rushford
, he is also responsible for one of the most legendary releases in the Kye records catalog, the creaking electronic morass of
Manhunter
(2013). Lovingly crafted over many months in his tiny Tokyo studio,
Tint
is an album-length electroacoustic suite that brings together Talia's expertise as percussionist, studio engineer, and performer on analog electronic instruments (primarily modular synth and Revox tape machine). Ranging from minimalist austerity to kosmische lushness,
Tint
refreshingly refuses the dark and moody sonic palette of much contemporary electroacoustic music in favor of an airy, at times almost weightless sound-world of gliding tones, skittering percussion, and burbling field recordings. Drawing inspiration from
Jean-Claude Eloy
's epic concrète love letter to Tokyo,
Gaku-No-Michi
(2010), Talia makes extensive use of his own recordings of his new home, but removes any sense of audio verite, abstracting them into transparent glosses of outdoor ambience or unidentifiable chimes and creaks. Flowing seamlessly between distinct episodes,
Tint
is compositionally controlled while retaining a sense of played spontaneity, eventually building to a maelstrom of analog synth zaps and tape manipulated percussion that reflects Talia's deep engagement with the relentless yet constantly shifting dynamics of free jazz. Stunning photographs by Joe Talia; Album design by
Stephen O'Malley
. Mastered and cut by
Rashad Becker
at Dubplates & Mastering, Berlin.
