Saying Ian Chang is a drummer is like saying a unicorn is a horse. Sure, itās accurate, but itās not the whole story. A more apt assessment is that Chang is the percussionist evolved: part human, part machine. He uses a complex array of drum triggers to play and manipulate samples live, fusing real-world drums with abstracted sources so that theyāre interacting and infecting each other. The juxtaposition of computer-manipulated sounds and the natural swing of Changās playing is striking. It gives his music a biomechanical quality thatās hard to pin down. Itās like free jazz, marching band cadences, breakcore, and a bucket drummer all built a beautiful, beat-driven baby.
