The fourth full length LP of contemporary classical works by acclaimed composer Mario Diaz de Leon. Featuring bold performances by a cast of longtime collaborators, this compilation is an essential chapter in his celebrated series of recordings for acoustic instruments and electronics.The output of Mario Diaz de Leon defies easy categorization, spanning the worlds of contemporary classical composition, experimental electronic music, extreme metal, and creative improvised music. Working extensively with an inner circle of close collaborators (ICE, Talea, and TAK Ensemble, among others) his classical works have been celebrated over the last decade for their "hallucinatory intensity" (New York Times), "snarling exuberance" (Pitchfork), "helter-skelter, electronically enhanced cadenzas" (New Yorker Magazine), and coupling of "crystalline clarity with the disorienting turbulence of a sonic vortex" (Wire Magazine).
