SPIRITUAL SCI-FI
Kurt WEISMAN
- Ref. XW353H
- IMPORTANT RECORDS, 2007.
"New Englander Kurt Weisman is probably best known for his work as part of hippy collective Feathers, or perhaps as a constituent of J Mascis' retro-metal side project, Witch. On Spiritual Sci-FI Weisman heads in an entirely different direction - not just different from his other musical pursuits, but from just about anything else you could care to mention. While the Pitchfork-baiting hordes are notching up creative Brownie points for their Afro-pop credentials, Weisman is experimenting with song arrangements exhibiting no such trend-based predispositions. Important Records make the comparison between Spiritual Sci-Fi and Van Dyke Parks' Song Cycle. It's a pretty legitimate statement to make as it turns out: Weisman's slightly surreal, kaleidoscopic approach to song-making manages to sound fluently melodic as well as restlessly inventive, with pieces like the title track taking wonderfully sculpted orchestrations and mangling them through a network of electronics." www.boomkat.com
