Suspended Cadences is a series of live improvisations for analog electronics and guitar lasting a duration of 20 minutes each. Each performance is given a number and it can be based either in concert or the studio. Two variations of the same theme are presented here. "(Three)" is a majestic, uplifting, high-velocity stormer of a set, which shows Hampson's improvising skills coming into full force. If "(Three)" is the "upper," then "(Four)" could be seen as the "downer," with its far more concentrated and inward character. Another worthy addition to his recent very busy canon of work. No computer manipulations are used in the performances. A computer is only utilized as a recording device in the studio environment to record a direct-to-stereo mix. The concert performances will not be recorded at any time. This vinyl album features the first two studio-based performances titled "(Three)" and "(Four)." Previous concert performances have been: "Suspended Cadences (One)," performed at Instants Chavirés, Paris, October 27th, 2011 and "Suspended Cadences (Two)," performed at Le Batofar, Paris, December 8th, 2011.
