Introducing Mr. Erik James Schoster, aka He Can Jog - a young ‘sound architect’ from Wisconsin. His music examines ways of perceiving and methods of dealing with the various problems involved in making music and other forms of art. For this album He Can Jog explored and poked about inside familiar territory that he hadn't confronted in a while (diatonic harmonies, jazz rhythms, etc) - mashing it up with unfamiliar musical ideas and idioms (African rhythms, spectral textures, hip hop, etc). In Erik’s own words, “He Can Jog is an attempt to work within familiar structures.” In short, the essence of this album is deconstruction, an emptiness of aesthetic (sunyata), multiplicity, and an interest in "zooming in" on recorded sound with amplification and DSP. Wisconsin never sounded as pretty as it does when coming out of Erik’s speakers.
