I recently came across a review in Gramophone Magazine of David Rosenboom’s In the Beginning double CD set that I recorded and mixed last summer for New World Records. The reviewer complemented the sound quality which makes me happy considering the amount of work that went into the project!

“In the Beginning II, for example, is an exploration by Rosenboom of an overwhelming, embryonic dread, with uneasy Indian harmonies and a splendid gong – an audiophile demo piece for low electronic bass”

“The studio recordings made since 2009 at the California Institute of the Arts vividly document the new sounds possible with configurations such as eight trombones (all played by Mike Svoboda) or a keyboard and two oranges, are complimented by live performances from 1979 and 1980 with Don Buchla’s 300 Series Electric Music Box.”
