Yesterday while watching a quarantine concert a was completely blown away by the avant garde violinist, Laura Ortman. I really hope I can spread the word about her music on Freak Fighter because she’s an unassailable powerhouse.





RAPID LANDS by Laura Ortman

As her Bandcamp page points out this was released in 2013. It was recorded on a 4 Track cassette recorder at a place called the Dust Dive in Brooklyn. Actually, it seems the Dust Dive refers to a place and a band of which she has been a part of.

Quote:
Formed in Brooklyn, NY, in 2000, The Dust Dive is an "art-rock" band that regularly employs short-wave and citizen-band radio transmissions, radio-assisted amplification and feedback, and recorded telephone conversations in their musical recordings and performances. Band-members include multi-instrumentalist, composer, and visual artist Laura Ortman (a member of the White Mountain Apache Tribe and also founder of the Coast Orchestra); writer and monologuist Ken Switzer; and interdisciplinary artist and lyricist Bryan Zimmerman.
Not sure. The BandCamp page says “at” the Dust Dive and she’s the only musician credited.
