More Info

"America Mystica" setzt sich aus vier Liveaufnahmen zusammen, es wurde teils in den WFMU Recording Studios, teils bei einer Session im Cube Cinema in Bristol aufgezeichnet, die Atmosphäre variiert also zwischen ruhiger Studio- und dynamischer Livestimmung. Das kürzeste Stück ist fast 20 Minuten lang, man sollte ein wenig Geduld mitbringen, die durch einen unvergleichlichen Hörgenuss allerdings mehr als belohnt wird. JACKIE-O MOTHERFUCKER schaffen mit jedem Stück einen neuen, einzigartigen Sound: rauer Blues, große Klangschichtungen, hypnotisierende Percussion, kombiniert mit pulsierenden Turntable-Live/Samples Elektronika - so hört sich ein poetischer Trance-Psych-Klassiker an //
America Mystica is a collection of four live recordings, made under varied circumstances, ranging from the quiet and comfortable setting of the WFMU free form radio recording studio, to the live theatre environment at the cube cinema in Bristol, England, where the group was recorded in concert performance. The line-up includes Montreal musicians Fluffy Erskine and David Bryant, as well as long time JOMF members T. Greenwood and Brooke Crouser. Also appearing on these recordings are Jeff Mooridian, Adam Forkner, Honey Owens, Jessie Carrot, Theo Angell, Samara Lubelski, Josh Stevenson, Genevieve Delinger, Alexander Tucker and Andy Cvar, with live sound by Craig Bowen. The four compositions contained here, issued for the first time ever by Very Friendly, are all quite long, even by JOMF standards, the shortest piece being over 19 minutes long. Listening to this work requires some patience, but is richly rewarding, as each piece unfolds and delivers its content in a way completely unique, and timeless, raw blues, layered drones, and hypnotic percussion combine with pulsing micro-tones, turntable live/samples, bells, whispers, and jive talk, to create a poetic, trance-psych classic."
