TIGERSMILK

ANDROID LOVE CRY

It gets nasty at times-feedback laden, meters in the red-even psychedelic as Tigersmilk pour it on thick,
straight from some cosmic mind's eye teat. Android Love Cry is the third album from the voodoo concrète jazz
crew of Rob Mazurek (Chicago Underground, Mandarin Movie, Exploding Star Orchestra) on cornet,
laptop/synth (and banjo), Jason Roebke (Rapid Croche, Fred Lonberg-Holm Trio, Terminal 4),
acoustic/electric bass, and percussionist Dylan van der Schyff (Talking Pictures). As a twisted, thirteen part
cycle that delves into obscure conditions of wilderness and transformation, it is rightfully backed up by a puls-
ing and often volatile syncopation not far from Max Neuhaus' electro-acoustics or even Cluster's space 'n'
rhythm glow. The trio's singular post-bop flare and minimalist cool still reign, even when meeting engorged
synthesizer and powerbook presence atop percussive fields and Roebke's electric bass runs. Tradition is deep in
these abstractions, it's an unshakable root from these three seasoned travelers who create sound even a dark
prince would love.

+++++++

"The trio of Mazurek, Roebke, and van der Schyff makes free music accessible. Not saccharine or Splenda--more

like Ornette Coleman's shocking 1959 recordings as heard through today's ears." -- Mark Corroto, All About Jazz

“Tigersmilk sometimes resembles bop, with swinging rhythms and Mazurek playing extrovertedthemes on cornet.

But more often, they engages in out-there, texture-based improv that's equally unpredictable and disturbing.”

-- Charlie Wilmoth, Dusted
