As he embarks on some live shows in the UK and Germany, Alexander Tucker reveals his Yeti alter-ego in this video for “His Arm Has Grown Long” from his recently released, critically acclaimed album Dorwytch. Watch the video below!
British experimental musician Alexander Tucker released his Thrill Jockey debut DORWYTCH in April 2011. This record breaks new ground for Tucker by combining minimalist string arrangements with electronic manipulations and drones to produce doom chamber-pop songs and psychedelic music-concrete collages.
He also plays shows under the name Imbogodom, which began as a sound-collage project with New Zealand’s Daniel Beban but Tucker has adapted this into his solo act for when they can’t play together. The Metallic Year was released on Thrill Jockey last year made by mutual friends in sound exploration, this Trans-Atlantic duo create other-worldly transmissions where improvisation gives way to mutated song forms and intricate soundscapes.
