Jeff Morton & Darcy Jean - Western Mourning (2012)




8.7

/Post-rock, Art rock, Experimental rock, Experimental, Drone, Ambient pop, Electro-acoustic/

Comment: this set of 3 tracks used to be a peculiar composition of droning synths, guitar fingerpicks. At times these drone elements used to be mild, at times more rough, though, mostly represented in a blended way. More concretely, these bleak and minimal Casio keyboard-based elements are variegated with more lush guitar motives and amplified echo channels. Maybe it sounds surprisingly but it reminds of some albums by Durutti Column. In a nutshell, it is a pleasing outlet.
