Jason Soliday

CIP is pleased to present the debut pro-pressed solo CD by Jason Soliday, one of Chicago's finest sound creators - manipulators - disentigrators. I've known Jason for coming up on 13 years- -his gunshop duo was one of the first live noise performances I saw when I moved to Chicago, and over the years I've witnessed many of his projects. In the last few years, though, I feel Jason really hit a stride with his home-built - customized analog synths, and this disc reflects his sensibilities: sharp edits, alternately heavy and minimal processing, quiet crackle interludes, and fusillades of electronic hail combine to create a dynamically shifting collection. I hope this disc introduces to a broader audience what folks in Chicago and along the road to New York (one of his frequent touring paths) already know: the man can produce some intense and incredibly well-paced audio.
