Label: Chocolate Monk - CHOC390

個人名義、ユニットGlands Of External Secretionを含め、Chocolate Monk常連となっているBananafishマガジンのSeymour Glassが推薦する謎作家Todd Wesley Emmertの1stアルバム。心地よい濁り方のローファイものからシンセポップ、持続音までと、恐らくロック調に寄せたアルバムですが仕上がりは完全なアンビエントテイスト。面白い作風です。限定60。





"No one makes being a visionary seem like an attractive career more than Todd W. Emmert. His beguilingly unassuming compositions slip through the cracks between the cosmic binaries -- your yings and your yangs, the bottom of the aboves and the tops of the belows, the magic hours of twilight and dusk. A Summer’s Day And Night oozes with the sacred perspiration wrung from the garments of the children of the supreme hypno-void getting dizzy on an interstellar merry-go-round. Four opening tracks lull you into a false sense of new age security, better than any vegan restaurant hold muzak, before Emmert goes full ghost story and bakes your head into a wax unagi pie replica in the galley of a Unarius UFO with a series of heavy, scalp-striating distorto drones that have every right to take up entire album sides. A fine, fine distillation of “splashing” and “down.” Huff it." - Seymour Glass
