The Lazers! release, clocking in at around 100 minutes of music, is now available for free at Stasisfield.

Stasisfield curator John Kannenberg eloquently describes the recording:

Lazers! is a Milwaukee-based trio of composer/performers including David Collins, Steve Schlei, and Greg Surges. Their collective work focuses on custom-built instruments and indeterminate notation, incorporating situational, playful approaches to performance while generating exploratory sonic spaces. Electronic instrumentation comingles with structures and forms rooted in the acoustic realm of improvisation: look for beats elsewhere, this material is more about sound’s relationship to negative space than pattern and rhythm. A multitude of approaches and scenarios makes each track on their debut album a fresh experience, its own uniquely impermanent world.

What you see here is my all-time earnings statement for my Last.FM page. Needless to say, re-working the page is on my list of things to do.

Recordings were made on a Tascam DR-07, with just a tiny bit of EQ after the fact.
