Trustfall

A 1 track leftfield/idm album (33m 54s) — released March 15th 2024 on The Trilogy Tapes

The winding flight path of Torn Hawk lands at "Trustfall", a hilarious and poignant spoken work of rewarding density. It's almost 34 minutes of Luke talking— talking over, against, and to himself, with sporadic, slyly deployed SFX and quotes of his own music, using a childhood memory as a generative node for a funny and emotional tale of transformation.

Luke Wyatt/Torn Hawk has been pushing more into speech-focused work in the last few years, using his NTS residency as an R&D space. His 2022 album "Toxic Sincerity" featured speech pieces of newly raw intimacy, and a cassette for Cav Empt saw a longer-form exploration of these efforts. Honed from a 2023 performance at NYC's Issue Project Room, "Trustfall" is where all this talk has been heading.

It's branching allusions— to the '86 Mets, WIlliam Rehnquist, Boy Scout regalia and behavioral weirdness, etc etc— take us on a wild but strangely cohesive, funny-sad path, which finally points at the deeply neccessary and spiritual utility of self-expression.
