TARTAR LAMB is a satellite project of KAYO DOT, consisting of all Kayo Dot’s members plus clarinet deconstructionist, Jeremiah Cymerman. Tartar Lamb’s music is distinguished from its mothership band’s by its specific use of modular repetitive forms – small musical phrases that are repeated and stretched and shrunk in time, with non-repetitive melodies swirling about. Cymerman provides the percussion by use of his extended clarinet techniques and electronic processing. TartarLamb’s music is like hyper-elaborate, horrifying ambient music, every moment filled with information while washing over and enveloping the listener in constant atmosphere. Tartar Lamb’s music is like a whale swallowing a comet, slicing up your face with the shards of ice it belches from its bloody blow-hole.
