Cemented in Stone

From all the way back in 1999.... Remora’s simple guitar pieces meet Clang Quartet’s experimental percussion sounds. Guitars that sound like keyboards & drums that sound like mouth harps. Ambient music, the kind of thing you might hear when fighting for your life against an alligator underwater or while sleeping on train tracks or listening to the radios of cars on the highway while hoping one will give you a ride.... Recorded on 4-track cassettes, collaborated via mail. "Youthful Remora & Clang Quartet did a tape & mail collaboration for this swamp ambient release. Pretty indescribable sonically." ~ MusicBrainz "Remora is Brian John Mitchell. He approaches guitar from a spacious, vast-sounding place. As a player, I am so impressed with how he takes relatively simple signal-sources and transforms them into giants. Layers of timbrally-modified guitar are stacked and layered in long vistas – buzzing and sweeping, giving off heat and reflection, simple, melancholy, organic… Planted on Remora’s *back* are the sounds, noises, and thrum of Scotty Irving. [I was there, at a Rockingham County Recyclers’ practice, when he unveiled “the electric stapler -w- E-Bow”!!] Remora/Clang Quartet do not do “songs”, per se. They paint with tone, rhythm, and timbre. Beautiful in a post-apocalyptic way. Evocative, like photographs and roadkill; elections and tele-evangelism.
