Album Notes & Community Reviews

Dedicated to the memory of his deceased father, the composer utilizes degraded tape loops and field recordings to craft a profoundly mournful atmosphere. The electroacoustic soundscapes oscillate between crushing noise and absolute, solemn silence. It is a deeply personal and physically imposing work of experimental ambient music.
