This makes the album interesting in both a procedural and a substantive manner. <\/p>\n<p>Given noises, the installation repeats them back in a different fashion \u2013 echoes of the original snippets. With voices, this results in not only sonic but also semantic changes \u2013 a call and response through a lens that distorts both audio and morphology. But Fairless submits field recordings as well, extending the installation\u2019s\u2019 reflectiveness beyond just language. <\/p>\n<p>As for the listening experience, the five mid-length tracks present rough-hewn constructs that crackle, loop, resonate, and fade. Falling motifs permeate what otherwise resembles a take on mechanical decay \u2013 perhaps an analogy to devolution of discourse or thought. Background drones surface now and again to add a haunting atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p>But <em>Keep Talking to Me<\/em> is not overtly dark. Instead, it is an investigation of transformation. It illustrates how meaning changes through mediums of communication to take on interpretations that were likely unintended by the creator. <\/p>\n<p>The unsourced sound of acousmatic music is an especially fertile ground for these notions. Without presupposed narratives based on lyrics or instrumentation, every one of Fairless\u2019s sonic events \u2013 whether from field recordings, processed voices, or electronic tones \u2013 become a signifier that is jointly constructed by the listener\u2019s imagination. <\/p>\n<p>Needless to say, <em>Keep Talking to Me<\/em> is very well done and sets a high-water mark in experimental abstraction. Highly recommended. The album will be released June 20, 2025 by Dragon\u2019s Eye Recordings. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Australia\u2019s Timothy Fairless uses a generative sound installation to create what is heard on Keep Talking to Me.
