»Brace for Impact« might just be the first album of post-internet pipe organ music. Like a performance by Dutch artists JODI, it is a record weaned on networked processes and algorithmic thinking, a suite of tracks which build their own systems then push them to the point of collapse. It's an album of five new contemporary classical compositions, all performed by the composer himself on the 78-stop grand organ at St. Antonius church in Düsseldorf, Germany. Featuring the electric guitar of SUNN O)'s Stephen O'Malley on the title track. A highly visceral forty-five minutes of music with undeniable elemental power.
