Cycles of Formation from John Ritz presents varying degrees of prescribed musical material and open-form elements. Each piece explores the potential interactions between human performance and interactive computer signal processing algorithms within a particular musical context. Featuring jazz pianist Gabe Evens, and classical percussionist Greg Byrne, and Ritz himself as the album’s composer, cellist, and analog synthesizer, this Ravello Records release delivers a stimulating world of electroacoustic sound, a smooth blend of suspense and innovation.
