A Mouse Orchestra - A Lump in Your Throat

A one-time-only collaboration by David Jackman (Organum) and Christoph Heemann (HNAS, In Camera, Mirror, etc), released as a white-vinyl 7" on Robot Records in the US. There are instances in which I can understand and appreciate Jackman's predilection for short releases and brief statements. Many of his very short 7" records sound self-contained and complete. Other times, he sets a tone that I wish would grow and develop for a much longer amount of time than he's willing to give to it. "A Lump in Your Throat" is the latter case. It's really lovely music, but would be lovelier still if Heemann's gift for elongated elegance won out over Jackman's always-leave-'em-wanting-more brevity.
