Before forming outer limits jazz-rock outfit Badge Epoque Ensemble, Max Turnbull masterminded the oddball pop persona Slim Twig, wrote and performed with U.S. Girls, and moonlighted in varyingly experimental groups across his native Toronto. While this was going on, the devout cratedigger had his third eye trained on another projectone that would span the breadth of his mercurial creativity. This journal album, as he puts it, is titled Scroll, and it collages together the pearls of Turnbulls eight-year dive into his songwriting imagination. Sprawling across 90 audacious minutes, Scrollreleased simply as Badge Epoch, a tidy distinction from the collective Epoque Ensemblesounds unearthed from a lost musical Atlantis. Turnbull calls it a cosmic hodge podge of funk, jazz, ambient techno, aggressive guitarmonized rawk, musique concrete, and hip hop.
