New Freedom Sound is a collaborative improvisational music group led by New York-based composer and drummer Zach Barocas. Its core membership includes longstanding members of the DC-area punk communities as well as the classical and jazz communities there and elsewhere. New Freedom works are currently identified in a numbered series of “Freedoms,” each of varying duration and instrumentation. Two Freedoms is comprised of the Fourteenth and Twelfth Freedoms.

Two Freedoms extends Barocas's practice into areas of greater duration and harmonic range, incorporating ideas based in the fields of incantation and repetition, as well as a greater reliance on ensemble shifts and instrumentation. The release follows on the heels of Four Freedoms (2021), Eight Freedoms (2022, Arctic Rodeo Recordings), and Second Freedom (2023).
