Aaron Dilloway - Rozart Mix (LP)

Aaron Dilloway's 'Rozart Mix' is a groundbreaking realisation of John Cage's influential 1965 tape collage. This experimental masterpiece, released on 5 June 2024 via Hanson Records, Wave Farm, and John Cage Trust, is a testament to Dilloway's innovative approach to sound art. The album features a unique blend of indeterminacy and tape music, with Dilloway enlisting the help of Robert Turman and John Wiese, among others, to play back 88 tape loops spooled around several floors of the John Cage Trust building in New York.

The result is a captivating seven-track album, with a duration of 29 minutes, that showcases Dilloway's ability to push the boundaries of experimental music. From the haunting textures of 'Single Rozart Tape Full Mix (undisturbed)' to the disorienting stereo manipulations of 'Single Rozart Tape Flip 1 Stereo' and 'Single Rozart Tape Flip 2 Stereo', each track offers a distinct perspective on Cage's original composition.

With its dark ambient and avant-garde undertones, 'Rozart Mix' is an album that will appeal to fans of drone and experimental music. The inclusion of a 12-page booklet with the physical release adds an extra layer of depth to the overall package, making this a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Through his bold reinterpretation of Cage's work, Aaron Dilloway has created a truly immersive experience that challenges and rewards the listener in equal measure.
