Robert Horton made a monumental splash
into the scene of free music in 2005.
With nearly 30 years of experience under
his belt, the catalog of recordings he's
accumulated is enough to make even the
most prolific artists blush. After
taking a hiatus from releasing music
from the mid 90s until now, the dam
finally broke in 2005 with the release
of "Angel Humming Through Wire" on
Foxglove. Ever since, Horton has
released albums on Celebrate Psi-
Phenomenon, Jyrk, Important, Nosordo,
Last Visible Dog and more.
"Dirt Speak" is Horton's first solo CD
release under his own name. When he
plays with close collaborators Tom
Carter (of Charalambides), Yellow Swans,
and others, Horton takes on the role of
primary curator. He weaves his magic
into the sounds of others with
mathematical precision. In his solo
works, he takes this boundless
inspiration and pushes it even further.
Organic, insular drones are the backbone
of "Dirt Speak," but the heavy tinges of
folk, jazz, and musique concrΦte are
equally important to its unique sound.
Horton will use anything that makes any
kind of sound as a source for his music.
In addition to more traditional
instrumentation, "Dirt Speak" also
features the use of vibrators, an
electric toothbrush, and even the sound
of contact mics in a fire. In a world
full of copycats and fakers, Robert
Horton is one of the most original
voices to emerge in music in recent
memory.
