Album Notes & Community Reviews

The San Francisco-based ambient artist crafts an incredibly warm, deeply nostalgic soundscape using heavily degraded tape loops and highly distorted synthesizer drones. 'Songs of Forgiveness' completely buries remarkably delicate, almost pop-oriented melodies beneath massive, suffocating walls of tape hiss and fuzz. It is a profoundly peaceful, beautifully melancholic, and remarkably ethereal exploration of hypnagogic pop aesthetics.
