Editorial Reviews
Option, Jan/Feb 1995
This marvelous recording features three composers who go against the grain of classical orthodoxy by reconsidering the piano.

The Subversive Workshop, Issue #12
This is the stuff of inspiration! Three composers have assembled piano pieces without any knowledge of how to play it.

Album Description
Nick Didkovsky (Dr. Nerve), C.W. Vrtacek (Forever Einstein) and Steve MacLean fly in the face of their "usual" musical situations. This is music surrounded by blurry boundaries: indistinct borders between technology, human invention, fixed composition, and indeterminate processes. The CD opens by dropping a piano on the face of traditions and expectations, and the twenty-two remaining tracks are dedicated to reconstruction.
