about

The title Feel Recordings is a homophonic spin on the quintessential field recording moniker, a name given to those sonic investigations and musics documented out in the world somewhere.

In this case, however, the ethnographic recordings are rendered and experienced in here meta-locally, or, rather, inside us where things are felt, hence, the referenced “feel.” The solos and duets that are the basis for Feel Recordings Volume 1 were also recorded in a single room home studio, with two microphones that primarily stayed in place, occasionally being moved closer to the specific Instruments that were connected with, in the moment. The whole process was physically close, and intimate, of conversations, sharing, improvising . . .

These 12 musical installations involve long-time West Coast colleagues Carlos Niño and Dexter Story whom some know as the early 2000s group The Life Force Trio (Plug Research, Ninja Tune) and who both belong to a robust community of musicians, vocalists, DJs, creatives, programmers, organizers and the like based in greater Los Angeles.

Feel Recordings Volume 1 is an ode to the affinity and respect that Niño and Story have for their people, city, each other and this new collection is their first excursion into a more natural and pure expression together.

Note the spacial and deliberate "room present" recording quality throughout, augmented with splashes of overdubbed magic. Featuring guest appearances by LA-based tenor saxophonist rising star Randal Fisher and transcendent contributions by multi-instrumentalists Maia, Laraaji, and Sibusile Xaba, Feel Recordings Volume 1 sets out to give you, the listener, “something you can feel” and something to explore, for and within yourself.
