Solo Works Throughout the Ages


J.Zagers Recent Works
A few cuts from 2009-2011. Towards the end of 2009 and finishing a tour w/LAZY MAGNET (jeremy harris, a mastermind of musical worlds) my world had expanded with endless possibilities. Europe's quality of life, jeremy's performances, and electronic music all started seeping into my world. I had always used electronics for "home/healing" purposes and figured it wouldn't have the same healing effect as it does in solitude. Well it doesn't always but sometimes it's just right and everything runs like a river. Or sometimes every device breaks and the tape player eats the tape and you have this strange feeling/presence around you. Then there is this sound that seems like a high frequency but may not be a sound at all. Here are some songs.

Rock Banned
A project consisting of writing songs around loops or guitar phrases, building layers using saxophones and organs, then playing them back through tape with live drums over the top. My own Rock Band. I thought of the name before the video game and then that came out and ruined the flare to it all. Anybody can be a rock band. But really, rock is revolutionary, stimulating and a flowing lifeforce in so many countries but america just has it all wrong.Project lasted from 2006-2009.
