Colin Stetson - Red Horse (Judges II) + In love and in Justice
New History Warfare Vol. 2’s quickly climbing the ranks in my favorite albums of 2011. the recording itself, lawd almighty:
The music on New History Warfare Vol. 2: Judges was captured entirely live in single takes at Montréal’s Hotel2Tango studio, with no overdubs or looping, using over 20 mics positioned close and far throughout the live room. Guest vocals by Laurie Anderson and Shara Worden (My Brightest Diamond) are the only exceptions to this rule, along with one brief french horn that was multi-tracked.
