western standards


"out of the swirling murky depths, a shimmering aura rises upward. the source remains hidden beneath dark currents as phosphorescent ripples lap the shoreline. combining atmospheric drones with dissonant guitars and carefully layered electronics, Western Standards paint an audio landscape as inspired by the early pioneers of tape manipulation and minimal composition as it is by contemporary artists use of cutting edge technology" sweat lodge guru

Muy buena cinta... con esta hice una excepción y la compré medio a ciegas tras escuchar un trozo de tema :) pero es que lo de este pedazo de sello vuela enseguida.

El de western standards es otro de estos discos que huelen más a mar que un puñado de algas, como Dolphins Into The Future, Jurgen Muller, Panabrite, etc.

no vas nada desencaminado con lo de las algas :) sobre todo las primeras notas de la cara b, que me recuerda también a many moons de former selves
