Description

Volume 4 in Tim P. Scott's "Music for Listening To" series, glossolalia is a satisfying 49+ minute music journey.

The tunes on this disk are complex, melodic, experimental and range from pure electronic glitchcore to electro to lush virtual orchestral/symphonic.

The album represents a distillation of years of immersion into music on and just off the radar, with influences from artists such as: Ozric Tentacles / Procol Harum / Strawbs / Roxy Music / Tangerine Dream / Jo Jo Gunne / Warning! / Blue Oyster Cult / White Zombie / Rare Bird / Captain Beyond / Black Sabbath / Philip Glass / Tool / Wishbone Ash / Camel / Love / Spirit / Clear Light / Manfred Mann / Megadeth / Moon Martin / Duncan Browne / David Sylvian / Bill Nelson / Talk Talk / Brian Eno / and others

There are also other sample of Tim Scott's work on acidplanet and soundclick for the curious, containing WMA and MP3 downloads of current and past work. For instance:

Although it's convenient to hear samples and downloads on the 'net please keep in mind that the pieces really do sound better from the CD. They also evolve rather and sometimes change quite a but through the evolution of the piece. The quality of the mp3s, wmas, and real audio files on those websites range from OK to awful. And I'm not just saying this to get you to buy the CDs! We really do honor our satisfaction guarantee.

A note from Crow Caw Music Works about the title: "We are really embarassed to state that somehow we did not realize that the fine guitarist Steve Walsh, best known for his work in Kansas, released a solo album also entitled "glossolalia" in 2000. We promise to be more diligent next time and thank Mr Walsh and his record company for not suing us!"

Interview with the "tim p scott" entity
by Guillermo Rodriguez / The Seville Inquisitor
Translated by Ras Putin

[Continuation of an interview about the MMIV release; see cdbaby.com/timpscott4]

GR: Let's talk about earlier works. How is "Glossolalia" from 2002 different than MMIV in terms of production?

MacFahrquahr: "Glossolalia" represents work from the previous 3 years or so and a transition in work flow. The first three records (Jack of Shadows, Circle of Art and radio i) were almost completely developed using MIDI sequencing and a rack of synthesizers. In "Glossolala", software synthesis and computers finally became powerful enought that you could create entire productions without external hardware. The important advance was the software package Reason by the Swedish company Propellerheads. This really did obsolete 85% of what we needed to support in our studio. Some of the pieces are based completely on that, some using Roland and Emu synths and some a combination of both.

Yintz: This production was also done 100% in our studio. We had a Roland VS-1680 digital recorder, since at that time computers powerful enough, and software flexible enough, to do digital mixing were not easy to come by.

MacFahrquahr: We still have that VS-1680, I just can't bear to part with it since we practically slept with it during the recording, mixing, and even arranging of Glossolalia.

Yintz: The thing I've slept with for about 5 years now is a Boss DR-5. I don't know if that's such a seminal piece of kit but I actually flew all over the world with it and created quite a few beats on it on airplanes and in hotel rooms. A hint about the DR-5: don't put the batteries in backwards or you'll melt the plastic battery cover. Fortunately the wonderful people at Roland sent me a replacement for about $3.
