about

Echo Chamber is the debut album of Taekjoon Kim, a Korean-American flutist from Boston, Massachusetts. After studying with Joe Morris and Anthony Coleman in New England Conservatory's Contemporary Improvisation Masters program, he moved to Seoul, Korea, in 2015 and continues to be active in its nascent underground jazz scene. Informed by modes and languages long claimed by free jazz saxophonists, Taekjoon Kim weaves intense minimalist structures, in a series of meditations on the role of echoes in music, society, and self.

“Echo Chamber”는 보스턴에서 자유즉흥연주의 거장 Joe Morris와 Anthony Coleman의 지도아래 비범한 소리의 미학의 연구자로 거듭난 플루티스트 김택준의 첫 솔로 앨범이다. 울림(echo)에서 비롯되는 공존과 마찰, 그리고 그 안의 주체를 탐구하는 여섯 번의 명상을 담아냈다. 색채의 엇갈림이 희미해지기도, 뚜렷해지기도 하지만 긴장의 고조와 해소를 통한 카타르시스보다 음율의 반복과 소멸을 통해 “있는 그대로 지속될 수 있는” 가능성을 표현하려고 노력했다.
