Invisible Design II showcases Bill Laswell playing a series of
"compositions" -- that feel more like improvisations -- completely
solo, a decade later follow-up to Invisible Design that appeared
in the Tzadik Composer Series in 1999. Laswell plays fretless and
eight-string basses, and uses loads of effects to create either
sonically atmospheric backdrops or multi-layered bass parts to
accompany himself on these ten selections. The results are busier
than those found on the first volume, musically more agile and
compelling. That said, Laswell's love of ambient textures and
soundscapes is also indulged here, and notions of space, silence,
depth of field, and subharmonics are utilized as interludes
between more active numbers-"Aphasia," walks the line between
futurist space dub and ambient dub, while "Sub Sonnet," which
follows it, immediately moves from dub to complete sonic wave
drifts of varying tones and levels of distortion that still create
a sense of float and hover. Other tracks, such as "Pillar," enter
and leave as simply a series of pitches added to by efx without
any noticeable "playing." The set closes with the beautiful and
sometimes tense "Darkness After," that employs some of Laswell's
most understated melodic tendencies as well as his love of King
Crimson's more paranoid fantasies with fuzz and distortion (think
of the long bass or guitar sections in some live versions of
"Fractured"). If you are a Las fan, this will more than likely
keep your interest over the entire 50 minutes, if you are anything
less than that, this will most likely be a minor curiosity.
