Original Mind is a collective of experienced improvisers from the Twin Cities of Minnesota. The name refers to a Buddhist concept for the consciousness that underlies the everyday thoughts and narratives that usually dominate our thinking about the world and people around us. Similarly, the music of Original Mind is spontaneous, unplanned, and unbound by any of the rules underlying the various styles and genres of music. The only rules for Original Mind's music are deep listening and selfless contribution to the conversation of sound and feeling. While this music falls generally under the rubric of free or avant garde jazz, the music on You Know When It's Time is approachable for any audience. The music flows in an easily understood manner as the musicians interact in sonic conversation. This approach to the music wasn't planned or discussed - it's what happens when these musicians get together.1. Dreamery2. Paraformal3. Visible From Space4. You Know When it's Time5.
