Elephant Micah

Genericana (black)

All the gear Joe O'Connell gathered to make this album was basically discarded or devalued: a cheap FM synth, some Hindustani electronics, and an old three-head tape deck to use as a "poor man's space echo." The icing on the cake is a one-of-a-kind homemade digital synthesizer called "The Mutant". The concept of the synth is parallel to the concept of the album itself. It's an electronic take on "folk" sounds (bends, drones, modal playing) and folk creative approaches (a cobbling together and reformatting of existing elements). RIYL Jason Molina, Bonnie "Prince" Billy, Bill Callahan, Damien Jurado.
