Anfang September veroeffentlicht Harold Budd ein neues Album, „Jane 12-21“ dass — der Titel besagt es schon — als Fortsetzung der Arbeiten auf seinem Album „Jane 1-11“ zu verstehen ist.
It’s simple. I broke out and broke back to my earlier days: A triangle of risk, improvisation and joy – as I say, very simple. My rules to myself were: No plan, no notes, no ideas, no microphones; except for Jane 1 I stuck to it. My other rule – the most important one – was: At least one piece per day, finished, mixed and not to be revisited again. Jane 7, 8, 9 were done in one day … Brad Ellis was my guide through this: An untiring day, ready to go again … To quote a letter to me from Mark Tobey: … „It fell off the edge of my brush.“ (Harold Budd)
