Black Cube Marriage
is an ensemble consisting of legendary Chicago-based cornetist and sound manipulator
Rob Mazurek
(
Tortoise
,
Exploding Star Orchestra
,
Isotope 217
), members of his Brazilian connection
São Paulo Underground
, Austin-based freeform unit
Marriage
, and special guests
Jonathan Horne
(guitar, saxophone) and
Steve Jansen
(tapes, guitar). Formed after shows in late 2015, this 11-person ensemble creates waves of sound that can best be described as cathartic.
Astral Cube
draws from multiple styles and traditions, and the result is a sonic eruption where past, present, north, east, south, organic, and electronic collide and is poured into the unknown. Traces of cosmic jazz -- think
Don Cherry
,
Pharoah Sanders
,
Sun Ra
-- appear alongside abstract electronics and heavily manipulated instruments -- not unlike
Autechre
or
Matmos
. Occasionally the sounds this group creates conjures mental imagery of flourishing nature, colorful wildlife, flowing mountain streams, and ancient rituals -- other times the glistening sonic textures evoke images of buzzing urban power lines or technology gone haywire. It's ceremonial, yet deeply futuristic music. Powerful, unknown, surreal. A sonic outpouring of light an energy. This is post-everything psychedelia at the outer limits of musical possibilities.
