Red Snapper / Pale Blue Dot

Lo Recordings

Red Snapper returns from the outer reaches with six brand new tracks, and they are once again back to a rocking three-piece with a saxophone. As always, it's impossible to define the sound they make--afro-jazz, krautrock, rockabilly, hip hop, and funk all bubble in their dub melting pot.  A Pale Blue Dot was recorded live in concert with Darius Kedros on mixing/dub duty, and live in the studio with Tim Holmes of Death In Vegas. New sax (and clarinet) man Tom Challenger brings back the edge and makes these recordings truly sizzle. Anyone who has caught them live knows what unique and powerful performers they are. This CD is both a document and mission statement, and includes radical new reinterpretations of two tracks, one apiece by Kelpe and Subway, stretching the future-jazz vibe riiiiight out.   A Pale Blue Dot--an album that feels so good, so right, so now.
