LITTLE FERRY, New Jersey, July 2, 2009 —When composer and multi-instrumentalist Elliott Sharp develops a new project, he chooses his tools judiciously. Recently Sharp has deployed the Eventide TimeFactor and PitchFactor into his tight stable of music creation tools. Elliott Sharp has been central to the avant-garde music scene in New York City for over thirty years and has released over 200 recordings spanning the musical spectrum, all with his personal stamp. He leads the projects Carbon and Orchestra Carbon, Tectonics, and Terraplane and has pioneered ways of applying fractal geometry, chaos theory, and genetic metaphors to musical composition and interaction. His collaborators have included The Ensemble Modern; Qawwali singer Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan; Radio-Symphony of Frankfurt; pop singer Debbie Harry, computer artist Perry Hoberman; blues legends Hubert Sumlin and Pops Staples; jazz greats Jack deJohnette, Sonny Sharrock, Arthur Blythe, Oliver Lake, and Billy Hart; turntable innovator Christian Marclay; and Bachir Attar, leader of the Master Musicians Of Jahjouka from Morocco.
On choosing Eventide stompboxes, Sharp remarked, “I'm awestruck by the power and quality of these units - I can have a rackfull of my favorite sounds under my arm. The amazing amount of programmability and control lets me take my instruments into uncharted realms. Truly a universe of sounds to be explored."
Sharp's most recent CD releases include "Octal" and "Concert In Dachau", both for solo guitar, "Cryptid Fragments," a collection of electroacoustic works from 1991-1996; "Commune", the score to the feature documentary by Jonathan Berman, and "String Quartets: 2002-2008" with the Sirius String Quartet.
