Oliveros Dempster Panaiotis - Deep Listening (1989)

Deep Listening _ 1989 (New Albion NA 022 CD)

"Band members Pauline Oliveros, Stuart Dempster and Panaiotis have captured the fantastic acoustics of the Fort Worden Cistern, a cavernous underground watertank which possesses an amazing 45 second reverberation time producing pure, smooth reverberation which overlaps the original sound. The recording employs composer Pauline Oliveros' accordion and voice; Dempster's trombone, voice, didjeridu, conch shell and garden hose; and composer/designer Panaiotis' voice, whistling, pipes and metal pieces.
"The sound is breathtaking: mysterious, pure, eerie wrap-around sound that sometimes imitates a heavenly chorus and sometimes a distant jet engine...a listening experience like no other."

Melinda Bargreen, in The Seattle Times
