Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Los Angeles-based composer constructs a profoundly surreal, highly progressive suite of post-minimalist ambient music and delicate electroacoustic manipulation. Rooted in slowly shifting, deeply hypnotic drones, the entirely instrumental arrangements conjure an incredibly dark, nocturnal atmosphere. It is a wonderfully sombre, avant-garde exploration of sustained tension and psychoacoustic space.
