Manuel Zurria - Loops4ever mp3 album

Despite appearances, these are not merely covers of serial and minimal music performed on the flute (although obviously a flute-based cover band is a spectacular idea). Zurria deftly adapts some old classics (Terry Riley's 'Dorian Reeds' is recognizable only in structure), while also performing some literal takes on modern pieces. Alan Licht's 'New York Minute' could be swapped with Zurria's performance without turning many heads, and his recording of William Basinski's 'A Movement In Chrome Primitive, Variation 6' is, like the original, a song to fall asleep to a thousand times over. Each piece is perhaps best consumed on repeat, allowing it to build up and collect in the recesses of your ears."Listening in accumulation".
