Javelin, The Interview
Joe Ahearn, The Clocktower Gallery's Curator of Performance and Installation, catches up with Javelin, the musical duo consisting of George Langford and Tom Van Buskirk, to reveal how the Clocktower's current installation came to life and brought New Yorkers an environment they rarely get to experience in the concrete jungle. These Brooklyn-based cousins, responsible for the Canyon Candy film's soundtrack and the ghostly sounds emitting from Mike Anderson's Canyon installation, discuss the evolution of their music from sample-obsessed electronic grooves to the forgotten sounds of the American West, culminating in Canyon Candy, their latest album. They also discuss one-dollar records, the power of soundscapes, the relationship between the installation and the album and the inspiration both pieces lent to one another.
