achillesstand7 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 John Frusciante is releasing a new self-titled solo album under the moniker Trickfinger.Pre-order currently available through Amoeba, but I'm sure it will show up other places as well.http://www.amoeba.com/trickfinger-lp-trickfinger/albums/3459960/"I started being serious about following my dream to make electronic music, and to be my own engineer, five years ago. For the 10 years prior to that, I had been playing guitar along with a wide range of different types of programmed synthesizer and sample-based music, emulating what I heard as best as I could. I found that the languages machines forced programmers to think in had caused them to discover a new musical vocabulary...In 2007, I started to learn how to program all the instruments we associate with acid house music and some other hardware. For about seven months I didn’t record anything. Then I started recording, playing 10 or so synced machines through a small mixer into a CD burner. This was all experimental acid house, my skills at making rock music playing no part in it whatsoever. I had lost interest in traditional songwriting and I was excited about finding new methods for creating music. I’d surround myself with machines, program one and then another and enjoy what was a fascinating process from beginning to end…" Opening track: https://soundcloud.com/absurd/trickfinger-after-below Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpa21 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Does anyone know where this can be had for a reasonable price? Looks like the only option is a German pressing at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
