Mode for Titan proves that the bass is a melodic and ambient force in its own right. Writing on and for the bass, Josh Werner explores new dimensions of composition and improvisation, and effortlessly moves through sonic textures, all without a conventional rhythm section. Producer Bill Laswell steers the seasoned composer, performer and abstract painter Werner into novel instrumental territory, including the sitar bass, seven-string and fretless bass. The records wide array of influences reflects Werner's experience and diverse skillset, yet Mode for Titan maintains its introspective focus and stays grounded in minimalist beauty throughout. Laswell's production endows this sonic journey with a vast sense of space, painted in a ray of colors as boundless as the producers own palette.
Werners work with Ghostface Killah, CocoRosie, Lee Perry, Cibo Matto, Popcaan, James Brandon Lewis, Matisyahu and Tunde Adebimpe has cemented the producer and songwriters status as a low-end heavyweight.
