The debut album from Hiss Tracts, a collaborative project between Godspeed You! Black Emperor guitarist David Bryant and sound artist Kevin Doria of Growing. 'Shortwave Nights' is a work of dark, textured ambient music constructed from decaying tape loops, guitar drones, and processed sound. The album has a haunted, post-apocalyptic quality, evoking decaying landscapes and the ghostly remnants of radio transmissions.
