REVIEWS

a wonderful primal textural physical gutwrenching experience to cherish
author: Grant Horsnell
How I wish I could have been present to experience these improvisations first hand. Articulate experimental noise, where the bowed bass seems to scrape across my soul. Thanx Jair-Rohm

Deep, dark, and innovative
author: Krispen Hartung
Deep, dark, and innovative...I admire Jair-Rohm for his courage and integrity in producing a piece of musical art that doesn't yield to the popular aesthetic of diatonic harmonies, time signatures, and cliches that are immersed within the musical forms of A-A-B-A, A-B-A-B-A, ad nauseum. More importantly is the fact that he created these diverse musical landscapes with the bass alone, re-architected with effects, creative technique, and real-time looping technology. Exquisite Noise is a mind-trip that resonates with my love of the abstract and esoteric, tapping into eclectic fantasies, altered states, and the darkest of fears (Krispen Hartung - www.krispenhartung.com)
