Original 1978 Folkways pressing that introduces fluxus pioneer Philip Corner, together with experimental electronics figure Daniel Goode(he later had also a great release on Tzadik), Barbara Benary. The artists use the Java instruments and combine it with avant-garde aesthetics, creating their own instruments(like Harry Partch/Bertoia). Their music can be described as indeterminate / atonal / procedural / minimalist. Comes with original 12-page booklet which lies in mint condition!! Justly put in the same appreciation with La Monte Young, Charlemagne Palestine, Tony Conrad and Steve Reich
