The Alps are Jefre Cantu-Ledesma (aka Tarentel), Alexis Georgopoulos and Scott Hewicker, a loose-knit collective of atists/musicians/writers very active in San Francisco's vital underground scene. The group specialize in spontaneous compositions of the out-limits variety, offering a SOUND that is ancient and new, intimate and enormous, ecstatic and expansive, and illuminated with white light. And JEWELT GALAXIES/SPIRIT SHAMBLES is their 1st full album collecting the first two CDR releases from The Alps. Following a specially tuned internal compass that leads them from open meadows and rushing rivers to urban chaos and decay, The Alps use a variety of sound sources (Wooden Flute, Tabla, Orchestra Bells, Electric Guitar, Omnichord, Microphone, Clarinet, Violin Bow, Acoustic Guitar, Organ, Shakers, Mixer, Voice, Cassette Tape, Sleigh Bells. This was recorded with one microphone in Scott Hewickers's living room mostly in one session on November 14, 2005 and a bit in August earlier in the year.
