Jason Sloan plus Neil Cippon at The Gatherings

Exploring sound, texture and atmosphere, the music of Jason Sloan is smooth and spacious. It opens up and fills Ambient zones with the slow motion of sustaining chords and a gradual metamorphosis of timbre. By adding the elements of rhythm and melody his works provide a remarkably deeper examination of the interior landscape. With layers of reverberant tones over sampled percussion loops and grooves, or perhaps mingled with cloud-soft synth pads and digital-age beats, Sloan's musical ideas posses a shimmering exuberance. Sparking then smoldering, his music plays out across an ever-changing sonic landscape.
Philadelphia based multi-instrumentalist Neil Cippon explores the ambient atmospheres possible with his six string electric bass. Using various pedals, filters, loopers and delays combined with synthesizer textures and Berlin-School sequencing, his soundscapes send the listener in an outward direction along an arc of original sounds, designs and moods. Issuing a silvery beam of cool tones and tender textures, Cippon's processed bass guitar plays warmly in easily engaging curving contours. With concerts in this expanded minimalist style, the continuously lulling long-form pieces drift gently through Ambient realms. A quieter experiment than those of his Rock Band years, his more recent routes take their time to develop. Moving gently through our thoughts, toward an audience tending toward the meaningful and mysterious Neil Cippon shares his secrets.
