Biography

Comprising Bablicon are the Diminisher, Marta Tennae, and Blue Hawaii, whose collective sound pulls from experimental jazz, fusion, rock, Indian music, and contemporary composition yet resists placement within any single one. This trait aligns them with Chicago’s late-1990s post-rock milieu. Their origins appear to lie in that city, given that the debut LP In a Different City was captured inside an abandoned machine shop situated near the elevated train tracks, whose rumble occasionally disrupted the sessions. Every member functions as a multi-instrumentalist, collectively handling an array of horns, electronic keyboards, bass, cello, “fuzz banjo,” theremin, and additional instruments. Additional contributors appear on various tracks, while tape splices and edits are applied, although the results largely preserve an unvarnished live character. The group’s recorded output encompasses In A Different City (1999) and Orange Tapered Moon (2000). Flat Inside a Fog: The Cat That Was a Dog surfaced in spring 2001.
