Search - Glenn Kotche :: Next

Next is the appropriately titled second solo recording by Glenn Kotche, recorded during a brief break with his regular musical companions Wilco and OnFillmore. Similar at the most primary level with it's electro-acoustic/concrete predecessor Introducing, Next is an acoustic attempt at exploring the concept that Kotche refers to as coincidental rhythms -- or rhythms out of the range of contrivance and design. To increase the sound possibilities of these rhythms, Kotche employs a number of homemade mallets, sticks, and drum head preparations.
