Mosquito Dream Summary Mosquito Dream is a challenging, brilliant update on guitar-based ambient sound. The disc concerns itself mostly with the ebb and flow of humming, nearly distorted waves of droning sound. It's far colder in tone than, say, the music of Rafael Toral, but it's neither too cerebral nor overbearingly bleak. The record was made, according to the label, in the following manner: "Plotkin recorded a guitar track; Gutzeit destroyed it and rebuilt it. Gutzeit used handmade instruments (an upright 18-string steel "bass" strung with piano wire and a 3-string instrument with 100-foot piano wires), a boom box, a stereo, and a 4-track tape deck to create 5 different tracks. Plotkin remixed those tracks and sent Gutzeit 40 minutes of music." It's a slowly evolving record; very little seems to happen on the first track--it just sounds like a succession of highly processed feedback hums. Halfway through track two, "Sand Scroll," things get really interesting and generally stay that way for the rest of the album. It's hard to say whether the record is constructed as such, or if it just takes about 10 minutes for one's ears to get used to its subterranean charms. --Mike McGonigal
