Jason Lescalleet

The Profile

American experimental musician and sound artist known for tape-based collage, field recordings and electroacoustic compositions.

Lescalleet's work frequently uses tape collage, field recordings, glitch and electroacoustic techniques. He has released numerous albums and a long-running 'This Is What I Do' series.

A close, poetic reading of Songs About Nothing that highlights Lescalleet's use of lo-fi fragments, field recordings and electroacoustic collage. The review frames the work as musique concrète that refuses straightforward evocation, pairing a stuttering first disc with a more programmatic second disc. Overall appreciative (4/5).
