Description

"Dao Strom's Instrument continues the author's virtuosic exploration of identity, selfhood and refusal-of stasis, of forgetting, of falsity. The book furthers creative and historical material Strom first explored in her books You Will Always Be Someone From Somewhere Else and We Were Meant To Be a Gentle People while simultaneously exploring new directions, modes and fragments. The companion album to Instrument, Traveler's Ode is an interwoven series of textured, ethereal song-poems. Atmospheric yet weighted, minimalist yet lush, the album combines voice, electronics, piano, guitars, and field recordings to create a deeply emotive song-cycle that explores haunting themes of displacement and diaspora. Echoing the work of artists like Tara Jane O'Neil, Grouper, Black Belt Eagle Scout, and Tiny Vipers, Traveler's Ode is at the same time entirely itself."--Publisher's website (viewed March 23, 2021).
