Album Notes & Community Reviews

Julian Koster's second imaginary symphony for the Music Tapes is a narrated story record, built as a radio play with musical interludes for singing saw, banjo and tape collage. Its childlike narration and lo-fi sound design make the album closer to an audio book than a song cycle.

Genres

Descriptors: fantasy, avant-garde, storytelling, conceptual, vocal
