Coppice - Big Wad Excisions - Music CD

2013 release from the Chicago-based duo of Joseph Kramer and No Cullar. Big Wad Excisions builds on earlier experiments while tightening the focus and introducing new, unexpected elements. It also re-launches the Quakebasket label, which after lying dormant for six years and relocating to Louisville, KY, is entering a riotous second phase. Using specific instrumental preparations and aiming for an 'impression of transparency' in their music, Coppice's compositions are drenched in both clarity and mystery. Given the state of technology and society, no group should sound quite like Coppice does. However, the brilliance of their recent work has proven otherwise, blasting open the gates of the status quo and helping to redefine the future of music.
