greg kowalsky is from oakland, ca usa. 'tape chants' follows gregg's 'through the cardial window' album released in early 2006 on kranky. moving away from the realm of digital, greg has experimented with analogue synths, tape loops and acoustic sound. 'tape chants' is made up of performances and compositions using tapes as the main source material, as well as the mono speakers of various cassette players for the piece's amplification. all of the cassettes are tuned to each other usingt he pitch control and half-speed playback devices located on the sony tcm 200dv cassette recorder. all of the compositions are constructed with tuned sine-waves as the starting point and the pieces are built using sources such as shruti box, percussion, gongs, etc.
