"frame" is the much anticipated follow up release to last year's
debut "optimal.lp", a cd
  which caused quite a bit of critical stir among listeners and billed
as a very impressive and original work for a new artist.

dan abrams (aka: shuttle358) seamlessly blends stark textures/drones
with digital
  disfunction. clicks, skips and tiny mechanised rhythms intertwine in
hypnotic form that
  abrams allows to evolve in a very organic way.

  "frame" picks up where "optimal.lp" left off. a bit more distant
with excursions into deeper
  realms of abrams' signature skittish minimalist rhythmic work.

  "frame" also includes a video, shot by abrams himself, in DVCAM for
the title of the album. it is
  available on the cd in quicktime format as well as a separate
high-res VHS release. the use
  of movement and abstracted forms along with a subtle color palatte
of whites, blues and
  yellows is a perfect visual accompanyment to the fragile rhythms of
the soundtrack.

  dan abrams/shuttle358:
  "if you put an empty frame against a blank wall, you suddenly notice
the the color, the
  patterns, the imperfections in the plaster. the frame is like a
window of perception. it takes
  the wall outside time. the frame draws attention to what is within
it - it magnifies it, you
  focus on it, it begins to symbolize the whole wall."
