"Roger Kleier, an experimental guitarist, is an important part of New York's downtown new music scene. He regularly performs and records with a variety of leading-edge musicians, including Kato Hideki, Ikue Mon, David Moss, Phill Niblock, Marc Ribot, Elliott Sharp, La Donna Smith, Carl Stone, Davey Williams, John Zorn, and others. Kleier's unique style draws equally from improvisation, contemporary classical music, and the American guitar traditions of blues, jazz, and rock. Kleier seduces listeners by mutating his guitar in various ways, ranging from the hallowed techniques of Jimi Hendrix and Captain Beefheart, through the extended techniques of avant-garde guitar-mangling, to the recent technological innovations of sampling, layering, and digital sound processing."
