Basically out of print for 10 years, a few CDs still exist of this first early recording by one of San Francisco Bay Area’s pioneering groups melding acoustic instruments and computer-electronic programming. Recorded in 1987. Compositions by Brown and Ochs and one by Steve Lacy.

Formed in 1984, ROOM was one of the first improvising bands to combine electro-acoustic sampling via computer with pure acoustic instruments. With compositions by Chris Brown who also designed all the computer programs, the group worked with composition and improvisation, touring and recording intensively from 1986 to 1991 often including electronics master Scot Gresham-Lancaster to handle Brown’s complex electronic design. With advances in technology and even more sophisticated software instrument designs, Brown now handles everything himself in real time.

ARTISTS
Chris Brown (piano, percussion piano, electronics design and programming); Larry Ochs (tenor sax, sopranino sax); William Winant (vibraphone, percussion)
