In this episode, host David Humphrey interviews the painter Alexander Ross. Alex brings his eclectic home recordings from the late '80s to early '90s. From experimenting with a Tascam four-track recorder to creating a dense soup of sounds featuring wind-up toys, homemade wood chimes, and even live feeds from bands facing technical difficulties, Alex's playful approach to sound takes center stage. Alex reveals the hidden connections between his solid-looking paintings and the atmospheric complexity of his music.
