Tashi Dorji & Tyler Damon Both Will Escape

Both Will Escape is the debut full length between electric guitarist Tashi Dorji and percussionist Tyler Damon. In the long tradition of string/drum duets -- from Bailey & Bennink to Haino & Yoshida -- these two cleave out their own unmapped continent of sound. In four pieces they connect lashes of ecstatic intensity and outer reaches of texture and timbre. At times Dorji’s brutal electric torrents meld into Damon’s metal and tonal abstractions. These two developed in parallel for years before forging an ongoing duo in 2015. Dorji has released a string of startling acoustic albums that’ve rescrambled six-string notions of jazz/improv/ Flamenco. Damon’s rethink of overtone and rhythm is enraptured as it’s stupefying in solo exhibitions or with Darin Gray, Mars Williams and Thee Open Sex. Both Will Escape was recorded recorded by Patrick Kukucka at the Hi Z lo z Studio in Asheville, NC and mixed by John Dawson at Magnetic South. Tashi Dorji’s guitar playing has been widely heralded in wake of releases on Ben Chasny’s Hermit Hut, Feeding Tube and MIE. One time pressing of 500 LPs with download code.
