Comment
: the project comes out from Halifax, Canada, however, deserving downrightly its name - it is deep , it is hazy, it is highly vapour-wrapped, though, Fof Lake`s music is not about ambient music only. This 10-track album vents itself through folktronic and organic repetitions, spoken word and glowing bass fused undertakings (indeed, the production is outstanding - all those (semi-) chord repetitions, flickering half and full tones, micronoises are very accurately laid down). It sounds almost like Thomas Park`s Stellar Fugue (the previous review at Recent Music Heroes), though, being devoid of rhythm sequences this time. Truly epic and inspiring for a new day.
