Muhal Richard Abrams: Imagine
Rating: 100/100 (learn more)
Muhal performing solo on synthesizer. It’s a mind-trip to hear some of the handclap sounds that are so closely associated with hip-hop music exist in this piece. This is a great experiment that, to one degree, dehumanizes Muhal’s music, but at the same time retains its human element. Also the fake record scratching sounds and raygun-shots are married with Muhal’s sense of harmony. It is truly Imagined.
