Free-rock, out-rock, post-rock, psych, avant and space rock. All of these terms have been used to describe the music of Escapade.
Escapade is a New York City based instrumental band, formed in February 1996 by drummer Hadley Kahn, who is also currently collaborating with Richard Franecki of F/i & Vocokesh, and with Colin Potter [Nurse With Wound, Organum, Christoph Heemann, etc.].
The current line-up, besides Kahn, consists of Paul Casanova (guitar, prepared guitars & electronics), John Ortega (synths, processed bass, various processed sounds), Paul Hilzinger (synths, sampler, and whatever else he can get his hands on), Russell Giffen (bass) and Rob Giffen (guitar & loops).
Kahn's intention in forming the band was to explore rock-based "spontaneous composition". However, unlike some others who employ the same approach, Escapade's music boasts a remarkably consistent cohesion, which at times has even caused some to comment that it actually sounds composed.
In an article for Progression magazine, Matthew Martens wrote: "(Instead of) laying down a solid, propulsive groove and letting each other run loose in lengthy, flashy solos over the top, Escapade (prefer to create) a single, collectively-evoked sound-mass."
They truly create their own brand of music, with little reference to other established names who populate the same musical genres.
"Rule #3" is Escapade's latest CD, and Martens' "sound-mass" description has never been more accurate.
This can be considered a "trance-rock" album, with most of the tracks using repetitive structures and drones either as founding blocks or as reinforcements.
"Rule #3" also contains their only cover track ever: a 99% improvised version of Pink Floyd's "Interstellar Overdrive".
So whether you're new to the band or a long time follower, it's time to check out the latest "aural hallucinogenic" from Escapade!
