Selected Tracks: "In any musical performance situation, it is best to be pleasant and convivial. But as in all manner the business of work has to demand your utmost attention. In Eric Zann's case there wasn't a lot of time to be cordial as his music was literally designed to hold back teh forces of complete chaos. This real or imagined cosmic responsibility has been debated openly and in most cases disputed and ridiculed excessively." -- Tri-Colored Tent Show

Maze
Above the Abyss Almost everyday in the news there are stories about how a group of scientists after so many decades of painstaking research and work create a new drug or make new discoveries, but how many times does one read about a group of musicians that have done the same thing? A trio of experimental and improvisational musicians called the Tri-Cornered Tent Show has done just that. It has taken them the last part of the last century (25 years to be exact) of dedicated practice, research, and patience that brings them to announce the release of Maze Above the Abyss, Improvisation on the Mythos of Eric Zann, and Beneath the Mountains of Madness all encased in 3 compact discs. The musical journey began with initial tracks being recorded using the ancient anti-deluvian technology of electronics from the 1970s. Though methodical deciphering of the Lovcraft short story “The Music of Eric Zann”, and other related stories expanded upon Lovecraft’s Greater Cthulu Mythos they began recording free improvisation and orchestrated sound sculpture. Within those 25 years they created the this cd triology from Edgetone Records Now, they come out from their exile held up in a well-insulated dank little studio in the depths of Richmond California. By the shear force of will and their dedication to the world of improvisation, they have a unique set of music to merit them worthy of attention. In a world of pop can music they could teach a class in patience and creation. 9 tracks in 57:45 minutes :::>>> Tell A Friend About This CD From Drimala If you like this cd, you might also enjoy these other excellent recordings: Improvisation on the Mythos of Eric Zann, Vol.2 (Tri-Cornered Tent Show) Beneath
