New Works by V. Vecker

With a dedication to synthesis and deep listening, the seeds for "New Works" were sown during a 2019 residency in Detroit. For V. VECKER, this marked a shift — a movement from the world of jazz into realms of the electronic.

Followed by nearly half a year on the road, "New Works" began to take shape. V. VECKER’s improvisational approach meant that straying from the original arrangements would not only be inevitable, but encouraged — a welcome transformation of accident into interest.

In the culminating recording, waves of tenor saxophone emerge and recede, each layer gently supplanting its predecessor. "New Works" is an exploration of granularity and resynthesis — an emergency transmission with no cause for alarm; a pulsating iteration that breaks itself free of the closed circle.

Originally released digitally in 2021, Tool Use is proud to finally issue "New Works" in a physical format.

TOOL USE is a small imprint and experimental archive
exploring affect and artefact, assemblage
and the epistemic object.
