| Stone Document |
Stone Document is a progressive | ambient | fusion project manned by
drummer/keyboardist, Mike Roze, guitarist, Dennis Tirch and Chapman Stick player Mark
Christensen. Check any preconceptions about "prog rock" at the attic door, grab some
headphones, and give a listen to this blend of electronic pulse, psychedelic improvisations,
and a return to unboundaried music.
Their debut CD "Anamnesis" will be released early in 2008. "Anamnesis" was recorded
when Stone Document were beginning as a duo (with Mike and Dennis) with a guest
appearance by soon-to-be-member Mark. The album is woven from improvisational
composition and performance sessions, and explorations of the use of the studio as an
instrument. Throughout this LP length journey, Stone Document evoke the experimental
spirit of early art rock pioneers, while delving into the outer limits of electronic and ambient
explorations. Live performances involve elements of free jazz, loop based illbient music, and
intense progressive rock excursions, quite a bit closer to avant-garde music than
nuevo-metal.
Roze has been at the heart of undergound New York Rock for years, and has lent his
engineering and studio expertise to the likes of King Crimson and Lamb of God. Tirch is a
veteran experimental guitarist, who currently studies the Guitar Craft approach to music
with accalaimed guitarist/producer Tony Geballe, and on Guitar Craft courses with Robert
Fripp and Curt Golden. Mark is also a Guitar Craft student who has contibuted to projects
by Regional Science Fair, Arty LaVigne, Cyrus Chestnutt, The John Tower Group as well as
his own forthcoming CD.
