Comment: the Dallasite Joe Knight aka Rangers` a pair of lengthy tracks does reflect exactly upon the emergence of a huge array of the tape labels worldwide in recent years. The particular issue is composed of spaced-out guitar progressions, smoky synth motions and change-overs, and loosely shuffling drum sequences which in general are channelized into exhausting shamanic droning which in turn strikes with the invigorating punch. Furthermore, the listener can perceive both the timeless influences of Ariel Pink, and R Stevie Moore, and more peripheral sonic shamanists and demented folkers and shoegazers (Glenn Branca, the minimalists, The Silver Apples, A Beautiful Machine, Ducktails, Lee Noble, Jackie-O Motherfucker, for instance). In a nutshell, it is a boisterous, and dizzy envelope which provides a way of how ideal pop should sound.
