Pleasurably Lost
Eilean Records
Beautiful sound collages with lush textures and subtle harmonies. Field recordings, snippets of melodies, fleeting samples, some wordless or indecipherable male and female vocals at points. Nothing is ever too loud or too harsh FCC clean
RIYL Tim Hecker, Aloonaluna, Pascal Savy
**1. (5:19) Glitchy vocals for a few, then fuzz static whirls noises, harmonica melody, faint piano, more glitchy vocals, becomes faint noises with prominent piano and layers of fem wordless beautiful fem vocals, buzzes
*2. (4:41) Lulls in a dramatic melody. Piano, hushed violin, water noises, a passing sample
**3. (4:04) Guitar, repeating female vox sample, repeating violin and piano, becomes a big loop that pretty noise happens on top of. Long ~ :40 looped outro
**4. (4:36) Quiet mourning for the Phony Disaster of Laziness, violin, low droning beat, sparse piano, modern classical with noise
****5. (4:26) Quiet piano strains, faint sirens, hushed female wordless vocals, synth noises, harp/guitar. john cale vocal harmonies, twinkly pretty, oooooh ooooohs
****6. (4:28) Children samples, twinkly noises, piano melody, guitar feedback, very low key trumpet
****7. (4:38) Simple but serious Tim Hecker-esque piano melody with static feedback over it, soft fleeting samples
****8. (4:14) Violin, piano, slow guitar phaser, pretty noises and fuzz
****9. (3:20) Violin bowing, guitar noise, noises, electronic fuzz, dreamy glockenspiel, beautiful female voices
*10. (3:05) Looped layers of guitar
