Bleep

Corn is a collection of previously unreleased recordings made by Arthur Russell between 1982 and 1983, beautifully presented by Audika following their extensive reissue campaign. Corn features solo recordings from Russell on cello, keyboards and production. Russell’s saint-like status among aficionados of experimental composition will only get stronger off the back of this collection. Lifted from his prolific and astounding collection of tape recordings, these cuts flicker between plaintive faux-classical offerings and scratchy, off-centre demos. Russell’s creative boundlessness is captured immaculately on this carefully curated collection. No matter what you are into this is about as essential as they come.
