This came out in 2004 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
The city may be quiet, but it’s also diverse.
On this fourth solo album, Labradford’s Mark Nelson engagingly and ingeniously intertwines a wealth of sonic threads — electronic soundscapes and ambient ice sculptures, itchy glitchy textures and dusty ghost vocals, downtempo beats and brooding bass frequencies, absent-minded classical guitar plucking and mournful horns, amplifier hum and controlled feedback — to spin a rich tapestry of sonic beauty and originality somewhere between ambient, slocore, post-rock and jazz.
