Spectrum Control / CarRl Mugen: Volume 5

Spectrum Control (a.k.a. Plankton Wat) and CarRl (Charlie Olvera) kickstart the second batch of Mugen Series tapes with extended live-looped guitar performances replete with fretboard heroics, concentrative rhythmic beds, and ecstatic leads. While Dewey Mahood's Plankton Wat releases on labels like Thrill Jockey, Debacle Records, and Digitalis featured discrete compositions teeming with deliberate melodies, synthetic textures, and overdubs, his Spectrum Control output spirals into cosmic abandon across live workouts of loop-based structured improvisation, calling to mind his work with Eternal Tapestry. Under the CarRl moniker, Olvera tears into an epic live guitar session that showcases a boundless array of shred strategies: crisp leads, e-bowed drones, and mind-rending torrents of noise that blanket the stereophonic spread.
