Machinist
Of What Once Was
This album comprises of two tracks with a combined running time of 55 minutes. 'Mono Tone In D' is inspired by the
concept of the Monotone Symphony (1949) by French artist Yves Klein. In this composition a chamber orchestra plays only
one note for twenty minutes, followed by an equal measure of silence. Machinist takes up this concept as a premise on
which he builds an electric guitar piece in D, with the only variation being the length of tones and different shapes of
resonance. 'Of What Once Was' is a live improvised piece, a bookend and closing performance recording of a series of
shows following the release of the album 'Viens Avec Moi Dans Le Vide' (2010, Betontoon). The piece marks the transition
in the sonic adventures of Machinist from guitar based drone work into new and as of yet uncharted territories and
unknown spatiality.
