Sitting on the grey shore of Puget Sound as Playback filters in and out over sea birds fishing and fog soaked evergreens drip into the forest behind me. At times I wonder what fully developed tracks might have sounded like. Mostly just enjoying its enhancement of my environment. edlalu
It will take me a year to repeat enough tracks to make any attempt to select a favorite, and that's not a bad thing. Wonderful diversity of music. adventure_tense
Inspired by the Syrian desert, neoclassical composer and producer Miguel Del Tertre creates a soothing, hopeful sound-world. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 27, 2021
As a band, they were really doing something strange at the time by making music that sounded so resolutely like it came from the bedroom of a solo producer. "Vocals" are just snatches of floating sound, drums are often electronic... all the instruments sound electronic. They were clearly inspired by dub (who isn't) and started with stripped-down fragments, but then kept whittling down from there. Mood-wise they're bleak yet beautiful, like enjoying a solo walk in an industrial landscape. Jascha Narveson
