Recorded live in Portland, OR on August 9, 2019, American poet Douglas Kearney and Haitian Afrofuturist Val Jeanty's album Fodder poetically splinters text on paper into a document you can hear through speakers &/or vice versa. Drawing from Kearney's That Loud-Assed Colored Silence poetry sequence (taken from his award-winning collection, Buck Studies), and touching on Louis Armstrong, contemporary protest, and the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Fodder interweaves original music, samples, and improvisation to create a completely absorbing listening experience. Afro-futurist percussionist Val Jeanty brings the heat throughout. This LP is a must-have for any lover of poetry, sound chemistry and/or Afrofuturism. Fodder is pressed on transparent vinyl and the album comes with a poem insert of Kearney's That Loud-Assed Colored Silence: Scat. Do the Deep Blue Boogie!, The Invention of Scat (Interlude), That Loud-Assed Colored Silence: Scat, That Loud-Assed Colored Silence: Moan, I'm Here to Help (Intro to Manesology), Manesology (After Charlottesville But Before It Too Shit), Sho, Eulogy for An Afro Pick, I Imagine I Been Science Fiction Always
