Comment: soon 10 years
will be passed by from the moment when I did discover the incredible
world of netlabels, platforms like Archive.org, Free Music Archive,
Jamendo, CLLCT, The Daydream Generation and many outings within them.
There was then the initial, true user-friendly version of Lastfm
through which I did contact with Tinyfolk and discovered his
releases. Indeed, all his issues were released through Bloomington,
Indiana-based CLLCT which was a bottomless source for the
contemporary DIY and lo-fi scene of the USA. It is redundant to speak
out I truly miss those times. However,
Incredible Snow is a
4-track issue and crafted after Ross Woods (now he is she under the
name Sara June Woods) moved from Bloomington to the Windy City.
Before that he had created a loads of issues of mixed quality but the
recent one reflects on his maturity in coherent songwriting and
because of it I would like to partly avoid the tag lo-fi although it
is a stylistic lo-fi example. It is a great release with melodically
catchy teasers although the release is more minimal than Ross/Sara's
previous issues. I guess similarly to his previous issues it is
created on Apple Garageband but without any guitars and ukuleles. It
is fully electronic with synthesised drones and orchestrations. You
can hear the female singing occasionally probably belonging to Meghan
Lamb from Iron Like Nylon. This is her one of the latest issues
before the project came to the end and she started a new project,
Pretty Swans with Meghan, and Jim Laczkowski (Garden On A
Trampoline).
