Savant - Artificial Dance 'The Neo-Realist (At Risk)' (1983/2015)
"Fans of Brian Eno & David Byrne's 'My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts' will enjoy this album as it is a revelatory document of tape spliced funk, fourth-world foraging and nonconformist musical ethos. The reference to Byrne/Eno is apposite...there are similarities in construction and the use of narrative snippets but this music shines in its own light...not borrowed glory. It has great rhythm, layered textures and drama which make for detailed and discerning listening... One to savour. RVNG Intl. revisit Kerry Leimer's incredible Savant releases, compiling the group's sole LP and 12" with hard-to-find compilation cuts and three unreleased tracks. Overlapping dates with last year's solo collection A Period of Review (Original Recordings: 1975 - 1983), this album surveys Leimer at the desk again, but this time cutting up and patching together source material from a gang of like-minded local musicians from Seattle who were just as unconcerned with commercial success and social status as Kerry himself. ..."
