about

Plucking the Spectrum is Part 1 in a series of 4 albums edited down from 80 + hours of live (no overdubs) modular synthesiser sessions recorded in 2020. The abstract music veers through the sublime to the abrasive, always conjuring a visual sense, popping, skipping and droning through mood swings. Repetition develops, drops and escalates. Play turns to disaster, anxiety turns to hope, delirium to elation in this collection of electronic mini-dramas.

Volume 1 in the series of Plucking the Spectrum mini-dramas.

Plucking the Spectrum Oxford, UK

Trained as a youth, untrained as an adult, here we have some of Timothy Ellis's abstract modular synthesiser works. The mini dramas are performed and recorded live in stereo with no overdubbing.

He also operates Jackdaw with Crowbar "the guitarist plays magnificent slide and shred" Thurston Moore (Sonic Youth) and General Theory of Dub "this ain't no white guy from Warwick" Jah Shaka, Kiss FM. ... more
