More Info

Dreamlike and dark, waving & shifting flowing of sounds, rather soft & with unusual handplayed instrumentation, another well done release from ENCOMIAST, check it out if you like dreamdrones.....!!

“Let's start with Encomiast, the duo of Ross Hagen and Megan Garland (as opposed to the previous release which was made just Ross Hagen), who play a wide variety of instruments (including violin, voice, flute, guitar, gamelan and shakuhachi besides the usual field recordings), but they create quite dense clouds of ambient drones. Three long pieces here of slowly developing, but highly organic music. It's not demanding music at all, gently flowing. More Mirror than Maeror Tri, I'd say. Certainly a different release than the previous, and one that truely enjoyable from beginning to end.” [FdW]
