Bandcamp’s new download feature is wreacking havoc on my Bluetooth systems. Instead of resuming where I left off listening on streaming services, I’m regularly confronted with bursts of improvised sound from the recently released Forge. Familiarity via involuntary heavy rotation has made the recording by Chicago’s Jason Stein, Kansas City’s Seth Andrew Davis and Kevin Cheli of St. Louis, seem as breezy as a Sabrina Carpenter hit. I’ve come to love being walloped by Forge. While the title track is a titanic roar, much of Forge contains ample space. The contrast between the analog sound of Stein’s woodwinds and Cheli’s rattling percussion with Davis’ electric guitar is pleasing. Far from being nuisances, the ghosts in my machines favoring Forge have done me a great service.
