All
compositions by Miller and Schumacher
"Donald
Miller , best known for his work with Borbetomagus, whose
creativity and emotional resonance reflects the broad spectrum
of aesthetics---all manner of avant garde art, radical philosophies,
and indeed, rock 'n' roll---which color his expression.....his
is a sustained...and defiant examination of the noise particles
inherent in a magnetic field." -----Cadence
Michael
Schumacher is a New York-based composer whose music has been
praised by La Monte Young as "proof that equal temperament
can still be hauntingly beautiful." He has received numerous
awards and commissions, including the Indiana University Composition
Prize. Michael's guitar playing with Dogbowl (Shimmy Disc)
was described by William Berger of WFMU as "genius".
"A
profound and beautiful demonstration of the outer limits of
white-noise (de)composition by Borbetomagus' lauded guitarist
and a composer of electronic sound installations. The 30-minute
drone-athon "Lamentation on the Death of Thrash Metal" stands
as one of this century's most moving pieces of music." ------Alternative
Press
"My
favourite album of 1997 was the Donald Miller/Michael Schumacher
Flood CD on Warm-O'-Brisk, the world would definitely
be a better place if everyone owned a copy of it."
