Rasmussen, Mette -& Pak Yan Lau-
Traditional Noise
Last few copies! A striking collaboration between saxophonist Mette Rasmussen and sound artist Pak Yan Lau, Traditional Noise explores the outer edges of improvisation through texture, restraint, and abstraction. Recorded in Antwerp in 2017, the duo engages in a subtle, conversational interplay_Rasmussen on prepared alto sax, objects, and voice; Lau on toy pianos, synths, sampler, modified wok, and electronics. Eschewing melody and structure, the album crafts an immersive, spacious soundscape where noise, breath, and resonance become expressive tools. A meeting of raw acoustics and delicate electronics that hints at the future of improvised sound. Limited to 300 copies.
