Synopsis

Album Description
"Hobbs is a master of subtle surprise ... haunting music." -- Howard Skempton "Hobbs's Sudoku pieces ... are exotically listenable and remarkably varied." -- Kyle Gann "[Hobbs's] quietly alluring music possesses the seemingly incidental beauty that can arise in music composed under self-enforced restraints." -- The Wire Specially priced CD single stickered with glowing reviews from Howard Skempton, Kyle Gann, and The Wire. This spare, beautiful, spacious 20-minute piece for eight pianos was composed utilizing systems derived from sudoku puzzles and GarageBand software. Performed via overdubbing by noted Los Angeles pianist Bryan Pezzone, who has been featured on numerous Cold Blue CDs. Christopher Hobbs is an English experimental composer, a pioneer of British systems music, founder of the Experimental Music Catalogue, and an early member of both the Scratch Orchestra and AMM.
