Z’ev: “1″ (Headphone Musics 1-6, Touch 2004)

Stefan Joel Weisser a.k.a. Z’ev died this year at the age of 66. His vast career as a percussionist, sculptor, and performance artist has always inspired me, even as there is so much of his repertoire that I’ve not even fully heard. This is the first piece from his Touch release Headphone Musics 1-6, a series of tape music constructions that draw on the previous 30 years of Z’ev’s experience, having amassed a huge collection of tapes with source material to use as inspiration.
