about

“...What, then, is improvisation? We are simultaneously participatory in the revelation of the phenomenon and analytical of its mechanisms, wherein we find modes of engagement: in tutti, we seem to flow together—as if decided, directed—and other times, each of us swims in our respective plane.”

“Laminar flow, in physics, refers to particles moving in smooth, well-negotiated paths. In contrast, turbulent flow…”

“Religion is the opiate of the masses. Analogies are tools.”

Turbulator features four improvised tracks from a leaderless trio and three solo contributions from its members: Massimo Magee (sopranino saxophone), Dasom Baek, (daegum), and Taekjoon Kim (flute, alto flute). The trio met for the first time on a summer afternoon, and without so much a handshake, set out to converse—to nod in agreement, voice objections, and negotiate everything in between. Documented here is a joyful intersection of colors that unfold in vivid, vibrant details.

Turbulator는 다채로운 음악적 배경에서 온 세 명의 합작으로, Massimo Magee의 소프라니노 색소폰, 백다솜의 대금, 김택준의 플루트가 어우러져 음색의 교차, 합일, 분산을 표현했다. 앨범의 제목 Turbulator는 층류와 난류의 경계를 원활하게 돕는 난류촉진기에서 영감을 받아, 즉흥음악의 과정에 비유했다. 유럽과 미국에서 활동중인 Massimo Magee는 색소폰뿐만 아니라 전자음향, 시각적 모듈을 활용한 실험연주를 선보이고 있다. 백다솜은 국악과 현대음악의 접점에서 보컬과 전자음을 활용한 새로운 소리의 가능성을 끊임없이 발굴해내고 있다. 플루티스트, 색소포니스트, 그리고 이 글의 저자인 김택준은 올해 콧수염을 길렀고 서울에서 활동중이며 지금 매우 쑥스럽다.
