Instrumental Explorations by Paul Downing
Transcendental numbers feature on this album. The link between mathematics and melody is explored. As is the difference between groove and accuracy. Sometimes the gnarly error moves us. Repetition can delight or disturb us. Dissonance can take us to new places.
