"An enticing homemade album that used short sounds to create long ones. Flickering snippets of instruments overlap and accumulate to create restless but mellow collages that sound vaguely nostalgic." -- New York Times On the heels of last year's celebrated Ceiling Songs, the debut full-length by Portland electronica musician Ethan Rose, comes Spinning Pieces, a collation of nearly five years of small edition art object releases produced for Locust Music. The aptly titled collection chronicles one man's obsession with, and magical approach to, old mechanical noisemakers both large and small--from a carillon in California ("Singing Tower") and the sounds of old player pianos in a dusty Portland piano shop ("The Dot & The Line") to modified music boxes ("The Miniature & Sea"). Rose's music exudes a deep compositional sense and inviting warmth that often eludes the cold and foreboding genre of electronics music.
