Sam Mark Nelson:
"This music began in 2004 when my partner Kindon was pregnant with our son Lincoln. A regular part of our visits to the obstetrician was listening to the baby's heartbeat. The Doctor would move a microphone around Kindon's belly and at first we would only hear a low-fi rumble. As the Doctor narrowed in on the baby there'd be a distinct rapid and watery throb. I recorded these sounds on Mini Disc and Kindon and I would look at each other and smile like idiots. An element, usually processed, of these recordings is in each of the tracks on this record. It means a great deal to me to share some of the chaos and grace of this time in our lives. Thank you for listening. [Mark Nelson a.k.a Pan.American]
Info dystrybutora:
Piąty album ikony amerykańskiego post-rocka, projektu Marka Nelsona z Labradford.
Z technicznego punktu widzenia album ten jest wrażliwą kombinacją domeny elektronicznej (syntezatory, komputer) i akustycznych instrumentów (gitary, perkusja, róg) z gościnnym udziałem tak znakomitych muzyków, jak: Steven Hess i Max Crawford.
Elementy perkusyjne przechodzą w polirytmiczne elementy, warstwy dźwięku, instrumenty i nagrania otoczenia zdają się budować mistyczny równoległy, ale wcale nie tak fikcyjny świat.
Bardzo trafnie napisał Lexie Macchi o poprzednim albumie "Your Flesh":
"The songs don't progress so much as emerge from a substrate of silence and blank tape, carving pale shapes out of a dark canvas."
