about

Following Onosante’s re-release in 2021, Mahogany Rain echoes many of the same creative sounds and affect heard in its predecessor. Originally recorded in 2005 for a small 100-copy release, the single extended track on Mahogany Rain offers an hour of mesmerizing improvisational sound, sparsely composed and deeply experimental. At every turn, UK music masters Paul Dunmall (saxophones), Keith Tippett (piano), Philip Gibbs (guitar), and Julie Tippetts (voice, various instruments) seem to explore the boundaries of sound, forgoing melody in favor of globally-inspired instrumentation like guiro seedpod, Tibetan singing bowls, Balinese xylophone, thumb piano, bells, gopichand, bamboo kahn, smiledrum, and maraca. Their sound is curious and conversational, reaching a crescendo towards the end of their improvised performance that scintillates and builds from Dunmall’s saxophone towards an elegant, piano-forward denouement. Mahogany Rain will be available in CD and digital editions on February 18, 2022.
