"Whether best described as having a restless muse or an open mind, there's no denying Brokaw is a phenomenal musician. . . You can feel it from the very beginning; the crisp, murky bracken of dense, disorienting fuzz; a sense of purpose and deliberation that lasts until the very last note of the final track, pushing things forward and tying the album's eclectic strands together"--Will Fitzpatrick, TheLineOfBestFit.com

chris brokaw: tidal mud

Chris Brokaw: "TIDAL MUD" (cassette)

Robert and Leopold in an edition of 100. Best known for his work in bands like Codeine, The New Year, Come, The Pullman, Consonant, Brokaw/Farina Duo, and others, Chris Brokaw has been a musical mainstay in the underground / alternative post-rock scene for over 25 years. This latest release shows Brokaw in a far more experimental light, shedding his familiar structures and going head first into the unknown. Originally released in a private edition of 22 copies, this cassette reissues his solo organ drone works that encompass his non-linear use of keyboard composition and a withdrawn sound of vibraphone, guitar and rain. Perfection in solitude.
