Chow Mwng - Beca cd



Chow Mwng, the alias of Ash Cooke, returns with a brilliant piece of experimental ingenuity; inspired by a Welsh artist group called Beca (who I know nothing about), he has created 5 tracks of Gwrth - gitâr (anti-guitar): this is improvised anti-music played on a stringless and prepared acoustic guitar and with accompanying senseless growls. This is a fine piece of musique concrète that deserves to be heard and disseminated, as it pushes the boundaries of what free music is and develops new ways of doing things with instruments. Great job done. You can listen to it and offer some cash to the Wormhole World bandcamp, which does an excellent job at making forward-thinking musicians heard.
