ONE SHEET TEXT for Analog Duluth, Minnesota, is not where you’d expect to find Tim Kaiser, but you’d be dead wrong. He’s the guy with the obsolete gadgetry at the back of various coffee shops and art galleries making that Post-Modern folk music. More than a lofty tinker, though, his music is as delightful as his contraptions: sonorous loops and wacky machine-vocals, with a decidedly analog bent. You can almost hear the Bakelite singing…One day while scrounging for parts, Kaiser stopped by the local electronics recycling facility and noticed a very large stack of unpopulated circuit boards (coincidentally the approximate size of a CD). He asked one of the techs if they were for sale. The tech said, "I don't know- heck, why not? I'll have to ask the boss how much." However, the boss was out to lunch at the time. So the tech said, "Just make them go away." And Kaiser did. A trip to the sheet metal works and the hardware store completed the parts needed. It took several weeks of drilling holes and grinding the metal corners to come to the finished product. The package was a perfect fit for Kaiser's music and maniacal zeal for the hand-made. Can you say “Grammy Award for Design and Packaging”? This is ingenious music of happy accidents; a two-year labor of love and sweat that just might make your secret dreams come true. |
