K. Leimer – Closed System Potentials – LP

“Closed System Potentials” looks longingly towards a self-regulating, self-deterministic music. Based on looped and unlooped elements and an unambitious interest in how those elements interact, closed system potentials is very much of its time, coinciding with the explosion of affordable home recording equipment of the late 1970s and early 1980s.

Produced with a Minimoog, an Oberheim module, piano and home-made electric guitar on two TEAC 3340 4-track machines configured for an open loop. The mixer was a TEAC six-channel model, K. Leimer’s first solo album followed his cassette-only releases of Unpublished Philosophies, The Mind and its Likeness, Translucent and the single Fiction/Decade. “Four Pages from an Unfinished Novel” includes contributions by Marc Barreca and Anode.
