Echolocation is the debut album by Pamela Z, the pioneering Bay Area intermedia composer and performance artist. Written and recorded over three years, and self-released and distributed on cassette in 1988, Echolocation is a genre-defying document of Z's earliest experiments with live voice and delay, and the impetus of an artist's three decade search for sounds yet unfelt. A pioneer of live digital looping techniques, she processes her voice in real time to create dense, complex sonic layers. For Fans Laurie Anderson, Holly Herndon, Coil, Meredith Monk, Diamanda Galas, Joan La Barbara, Pauline Oliveros. This first-time vinyl edition of the album is remastered from original sources and expanded with liner notes. Includes high quality, multi-format digital download. In addition to her solo work, Pamela has been commissioned to compose scores for dance, theatre, film, and chamber ensembles including Kronos Quartet, Eighth Blackbird, the Bang on a Can All Stars, Ethel, and San Francisco Contemporary Music Players. üPamelaü's interdisciplinary performance works have been presented at venues including The Kitchen (NY), Yerba Buena Center for the Arts (SF), REDCAT (LA), and MCA (Chicago), and her installations have been presented at such exhibition spaces as the Whitney (NY), the Diozesanmuseum (Cologne), and the Krannert (IL).
