Beat-minded minimal ambient. Electronic pulsing clicks and oceanic blankets of sound. Scott Morgan wrote these impressionistic “sketches” based off of Canadian landscapes. A favorite of Brick’s, see Dropped Pianos, Slow Dancing Society, synthy drone.

*1. Steady tapping and IDM nod, chill. (5:10)
2. Harsher ringing sounds blended with warm synths and keys, almost call/response rhythm. (6:51)
*3. Trippy rhythmic swirling psychedelic techno? (8:36)
4. Deep space bliss out. (4:49)
5. Noise-informed, playful, swinging house feel, but slowed down and trippy. (5:01)
6. Drone gives way to bladerunner urgency. (5:09)
7. Cascadia keys and ringing, warm tones. (5:59)
*8. Dark, near industrial looped feel and really pretty twang. (5:50)
9. Making love to a whale. (7:48)
