About

In the liminal space of late 1990s America, Brian Noring and Hal McGee crafted a series of process-driven cassette releases that bent the norms of progressive rock into a sculptural form. Their collaborations, distributed through F.D.R. Tapes and Haltapes, occupied a world where improvisational soundscapes melded with experimental tape manipulation, constructing a layered experience that unfolded fractally with each listen. The 1997 release, Solid State Life, set the stage for their sonic evolution, a harbinger of the eclectic instrumentation and dynamic rhythmic shifts that would define their work. Pollution & Decay (1999) delves into the themes of environmental erosion and existential reflection, while Audio Trash Sculpture Exhibition Tape One (2000) stands as a testament to their interdisciplinary exploration of sound as a tactile medium.
