"Pogus is very honored to be able to reissue this recording of works by the late Jerry Hunt (1943-1993), originally released on What Next. Having long been fascinated by Hunt's work, it is great to be able to have these last works of his available on CD once again. To quote 'Blue' Gene Tyranny: 'Among the pioneers, Jerry Hunt was the rarest, most marginal explorer of a remote terrain. As his musical activities moved from the electronic sound pieces of the 1970s into the legendary performances of the 1980s, Hunt brought along with him a curiously rich and viable ecosystem of pieces, structuring principles, performing gestures, and theatrical personae.' The sounds on this recording, created in 1993, are completely different from the ones that constitute normal or academic electronic music. The three sections of this electronic work constitute the composer's last pieces. He regarded the recorded version of this work as a 'document for rehearing.' The overall sound is the densest and most intricate in this one of a kind artist's body of work. The three sections consist of 'interlocking audio and video optical discs which provide the fundamental image, sound and program control strings... action code pattern structures... for a group of transactional mimetic gesture exercises... inflection calls evoking... melody streams' with simultaneous tracks of acoustic percussion. The sonic result is an entrancing, overwhelming, evocative shamanic performance of brilliantly designed electronic timbres.' Please note: This release comes folded into quarters, ending up as a 5 ½" x 5 ½" brochure style booklet (liner notes inside), with the CD in a paper sleeve, all inserted into re-sealable plastic sleeves. There is no jewel case, tray card, etc."
