Digital Booklet

Composer Eric Richards shared a penchant for deconstructing musical elements with his modernist contemporaries. And, like many of them, he used technology as a tool to examine and consider subtleties of sound and expression. But unlike his peer composers who then proceeded to write electronic and electro-acoustic music, Richards primarily used his chosen tool, the tape recorder, to conduct research on sound. After pondering it from many angles, he returned to the acoustic medium to produce works that reflect a prismatic stance on musical ideas, presented with almost scientific detachment and wonderment in the same breath. This collection of Richards’ works was co-curated by loadbang and Ekmeles, two ensembles with a deep dedication to advocating for under-appreciated gems of the avant-garde.
