psi is a collaborative model from Brooklyn, NY developed by Jaime Fennelly (electronics), Chris Forsyth (guitar), and Fritz Welch (drums, cymbals & objects) to execute a series of musical/sound/noise projects. For two years, psi has been examining the boundaries of their instruments and acoustical spaces together through praxis, psychic interaction, and ultimately, the stupor-inducing condition of performance. The resultant music considers the dynamic interaction of three basic themes: science, magic, blues. Together they have released two records, "The __ who had begun his career as a useful __ of the __ court later became the __ of __ and the__ of __." (Evolving Ear) and their newest release "Black American Flag" (Evolving Ear). They have toured extensively around the United States and embark on a European tour in May. "(psi) retains an overall warmth that separates them from the experimental pack." "a weird, subversive, static melange of sounds." "a very beautiful album of full-bodied and resistant electro-acoustics rather than evanescent and whispered school like we otherwise hear. Their choices are always original and personal. An album not to be missed" "The distinction between the flowers and the weeds in the fields of experimental improv may be hard to explain but it is not hard to hear. psi is a pleasing reassurance that our belief in the genre is not purely religious." "psi have that rare gift of a keen capability of holding their horses at the right moment, using their instruments like nail files: a unique touch here, an overlap there, and the majority of this genre's habituals get outmoded at once. Follow them."
