“With is debut album AC, Steve McCourt has crafted personal statement about the place of noise in lives. This work of masterful subtlety and power has taken five years to complete.
For some, noise is a curse, an unwanted sound, a transaction gone bad. For others, noise is a wellspring of life and energy, from imagination springs. McCourt operates in the second category, composing with jet engines, cell phone interference, and other sounds usually ignored as musical material.
This album evokes the deepest valleys of ocean, where crustaceans play over hot steam vents. Or perhaps are hearing radio waves fractured the ice pellets of distants comet. Or maybe an artificial intelligence is speaking to cryptic electromagnetic utterances. McCourt’s album opens window at science-fiction soundscape.” Robin Parmar, Stolen Mirror.
