Description
Drum Major Instinct is an experimental music duo from Asheville, North Carolina - Jeff Arnal plays (mostly) percussion and Curt Cloninger plays (mostly) modular synthesizer - The Wire describes Jeff's drumming as a "highly original concept" having "a balletic sense of time and imaginative deployment of colour;" and Byron Coley says Curt's modular synthesis "moves like blocks of radioactive adobe being shifted around by architects in space suits.
" But, of course, nothing is ever that straightforward. The resultant music is about waves of energy, patterns within patterns (within patterns), sounds from the natural world, and running the voodoo down.
