Idle Chatter Junior
Paul Lansky
About this work:
Idle Chatter Junior (1999) has three elder siblings, Idle Chatter (1985), just_more_idle_chatter (1987) and Notjustmoreidlechatter (1988), (all recorded on Bridge 9050, More Than Idle Chatter). The urge to strike again was motivated by the hope that time, experience and better hardware and software, would give ‘Junior’ advantages his siblings lacked, and consequently, a substantially different voice. Having more fun with the basic idea of turning incomprehensible speech into percussion music was also irresistible. (I never listen to the words anyway.) As with the earlier pieces, any listeners who think they make out coherent utterances, in any language, are urged to consult a specialist.
