Album Notes & Community Reviews

The second installment in the 'Virga' series features a more dense and atmospheric soundscape characterized by its intricate layering of processed guitar and synthesizers. The production emphasizes a sense of nocturnal mystery and the slow evolution of harmonic density characteristic of Cooper's mid-career development. It functions as a cohesive meditation on continuity, prioritizing textural consistency and the physical resonance of minimalist sound design.
