Record Highlight — Jason Crumer

The 6th full-length studio recording and first since his move to Baltimore, Jason Crumer’s Disqualifier steps beyond the shadow of Ottoman Black to yield a programmatic, mature and vulnerable setting. Dense brass,concrete sounds and mutated noise reveal a pointed narrative & unmatched compositional stroke. Equal parts harsh and ambient, Disqualifier is an exemplar for the American underground.

Recorded from nothing November, 2012 through July, 2013 in Baltimore, MD. Additional musicians: Jeff Stockham french hornChima Faraji tubaJeremy Mann trumpet, & Julian F drums. 150gm black vinyl housed in a custom letterpress printed jacket with download code. Edition of 250, available from Blossoming Noise.
