Bleep

‘Demolition 9’ is New York electronic music pioneer Martin Rev’s ninth solo album and his first new material since 2009.

Comprised of 34 wildly divergent vignettes - only one of which reaches three minutes in length - he describes it as autobiographical “yearning for joy and the unattainable perfection of the artistic ideal.”

The record spans a lifetime’s worth of moods and musings, encompassing fragments of Rev’s varied passions accrued across his nearly half-century long career.  From violent percussion experiments to neo- classical reveries to noir-sleaze abstractions and beyond, ‘Demolition 9’ offers a radically non-linear spelunk through the dreams and distractions of one of the 20th Century’s most influential sonic iconoclasts.
