Album Notes & Community Reviews

Fran莽ois Bonnet, under his Kassel Jaeger moniker, constructs a deeply unsettling, electroacoustic dive into dense, swamp-like auditory environments. The slow-moving, acousmatic tracks merge heavily manipulated field recordings with shadowy synthesizer drones, creating an incredibly ominous and suffocating atmosphere.
