 Jim O'Rourke Solo Noise Action - PopMatters Concert Review
O'Rourke, who was billed as "Jim O'Rourke Solo Noise Action".
But nope, perhaps O'Rourke has already gotten bored with his computer, as for this performance he was sporting a (prepared?) Fender Jaguar guitar and table of unknown electronics connected to what looked like a midi controller keyboard.
O'Rourke had settled down a bit, but it was still noisy as ever when someone who is best described as an asshole threw a plastic cup full of liquid and ice, hitting O'Rourke all over and supposedly ruining a few thousand dollars' worth of the mysterious electronics.

 Interview with Jim O'Rourke
O'Rourke's education would seem to have had little influence on his musical work, as for the most part it was based firmly in the post-serialist tradition; here, music is written according to a strict set of rules and a student's work can be judged according to its adherence to those rules.
O'Rourke isn't reactionary enough to suggest that this education was a waste of time, acknowledging that all the time spent learning techniques like counterpoint was relevant to his musical work.
O'Rourke is only too well aware of how the improvising scene is very political, with the people you get to work with often depending on who you have worked with before.

The pop stylings of Jim O'Rourke will never seem familiar to any of us (that's not his style, silly) but his combination of folk, classic rock, (smooth jazz) and the inevitable twist of the old avant-garde is always something new.
Evidently so much cigarette smoke has clouded Jim's interior thought process that he has allowed these early works to regain public consumption potentiality (the series subtitle, "Jim O'Rourke Old Series" might indicate even more will be on the way).
This set was my personal introduction to the O'Rourke planet/star-set (and what a fine, fine omniverse it's been and continues to be), the highlight of Jim's earlier tape-based work.

 Eureka by Jim O'Rourke CD
Jim O'Rourke's reputation as an inaccessible avant-garde music boffin is shattered by the beguiling charm of EUREKA.
After more than a decade of abstraction, experimentation, and improvisation, O'Rourke unleashed this playful curveball as if to prove he was human after all.
O'Rourke is a classically trained multi-instrumentalist, and his playing is imaginative and full of rich texture, but there's nothing po-faced about EUREKA.

 Jim O'Rourke - Halfway To A Threeway (Drag City) - Drawer B Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Halfway To A Threeway is a far cry from O'Rourke's days of playing the guitar with an electric drill or his output for the Table of the Elements label, but his first foray into the realm of accessible pop was only a few months ago.
It's only an EP's worth of music, but the point comes across plain as day: O'Rourke is a freak with a knack for a catchy tune.
O'Rourke speaks mainly through his guitar playing, which is intricate but serene.

 A Ghost Is Born - Wilco - Buy @ SmokeCDs.com music cd store   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
A Ghost Is Born is one of those records that you listen to whilst the whole time quietly contented at the quality and knowledge that its depth is going to make it a lasting favorite - literally something to dig your "listening" teeth into.
The addition of post-rock journeyman Jim ORourke before Yankee Foxtrot left many fans puzzled, but as he proved on that record, and even more here, it's his sonic manipulation and laptop charm that have given the group a new and satisfyingly original direction.
The epic Spiders (Kidsmoke) begins in familiar territory - pop tinged country-rock - before moving into the sort of jam youd expect of Neil Young & Crazy Horse.
