NOTES by Mr Dorgon:

How does it feel?
This collection of Intuitive, Counter-Intuitive + Non-Intuitive compositions as realized by Jamie Saft is the first time a performer other than myself has grappled with my work at length in a solo setting. He amazingly does the two things necessary for this (as did Christian Castagno).

1. Engage with the materials
2. Decide for yourself

The thing that continues to draw me to sound is its tactile/sensual quality.
Vibrational Realities co-mingling with Intent.
Can U Feel it?

Four of the eight works enclosed in this grouping were conceived of specifically for Mr. Saft.

Now, You as a listener have the opportunity to-
1. Engage with the materials
2. Decide for yourself

My suggestion to you dear listener is to put down everything else for a bit and be present with these sounds.
One good thing about music, when it hits you feel no pain.
Thanks
Mr Dorgon 2020
