No One is Trying To Kill You, Sweetheart.
(album, released 10/29/2013 on Edgetone Records)
"Nice project that works best as a percussion duo, when Kyle Adam Blair gets into the steely coiled heart of his piano,
for prepared/damaged excursions. The lead off 9 minutes had a sort of quick chaos that reminded me of Conlon Nancarrow, fast finger flurries but it all gets dark and ominous at 9 minutes in. That’s when Blair first slips into the “wrong” side of the keys; we hear sinister scrapes, broken toy tinkering, coffin taps, and those great metallic zwings like on #2 in the middle..." - Thurston Hunger (KFJC 98.7FM)

Minderbinder produces and manipulates sonic luxuries for the masses in trying times. Manifesting and evoking sound-worlds foreign to the historical piano/percussion duo status quo, Minderbinder integrates free jazz tendencies, avant-garde tastes, and contemporary classical music sensibilities into a sensuous experience comparable only to dining on the finest Maltese eggs and chocolate-covered cotton.
