"The title On Time Out of Time would fit virtually any of Basinski’s releases, since most of his music is based on encounters between the past and the present, be they recordings sourced from shortwave radio or old lo-fi piano loops, both drawn from tapes that had lain dormant in his archives for decades. But On Time reaches a little bit further into the past. As part of a collaboration with artists Evelina Domnitch and Dmitry Gelfand, working under the aegis of the MIT- and Caltech-operated Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (or LIGO), Basinski utilized deep-space recordings captured by LIGO’s interferometers. Two decades of decay informed the tapes behind The Disintegration Loops, but the sounds of On Time Out of Time date from 1.3 billion years ago, when two massive black holes merged and the resultant gravitational waves rippled across our universe. Or, as Basinski glibly put it when presenting the piece live, it’s what it sounds like “when two black holes fuck.”
