' '
,: Recumbent Speech, Ezra FeinbergÆs second album, opens with a :,
: lament. Named for the Robert Frost poem, ôAcquainted with the :
:' Nightö was written during one of the many devastating ':
,: spectacles of injustice under our current regime. Repeating :,
: flutes and synths beam out of a low-end darkness, reflecting a :
:' collective sense of loss and alienation. Rising slowly, ':
,: thickening with guitars and strings, ôAcquainted with the Nightö :,
: lifts off, and so too does the album from there. The second :
:' track, ôLetter to my Mind,'' features the dynamic interplay of ':
,: Feinberg's guitar with the loose and playful drumming of :,
: Tortoise's John McEntire, both pushing and pulling atop a :
:' looping bass figure. "Palms Up" begins with a lockstep pulse ':
,: recalling early Terry Riley before jumping into an Ashra-like :,
: jam with Afrobeat accents. Side B opens with "Ovation," a :
:' tryptic with McEntire on drums which sets a wide lens onto a ':
,: sweeping landscape, with soaring flutes, wordless vocals, and a :,
: hypnotic bassline played on a humming fretless that recalls :
:' classic ECM jazz-fusion. The piece plunges into an ambient, ':
,: interior space before reemerging with a guitar solo fried :,
: through an old Space Echo effects processor, conjuring lidded :
:' Pompeii-era Pink Floyd. The album's title-track finale, ':
,: "Recumbent Speech," features the magical pedal steel of Chuck :,
: Johnson. Unwinding atop a Balearic analog synth pattern, :
:' Feinberg stretches textures of Fender Rhodes and acoustic ':
,: guitar around JohnsonÆs lyrical steel, with nods to Japanese :,
: ambient legend Hiroshi Yoshimura, as well as Cluster & Eno. :
:' Recumbent Speech refers to the possibilities, pleasures, fears, ':
,: and fantasies that occur the moment the noise dies down, when we :,
: are recumbent, in repose but still awake, still speaking, and :
:' still aware of ourselves as part of the maddening world. Ezra ':
,: Feinberg is a guitarist, composer, and psychoanalyst living in :,
: Jackson Heights, NY. :
