ambient/pretty instumenty stuff/moody, like a cat.
some may want to call this post-rock. I just think it's a total bullshit term. same with mathrock.
I prefer the term 'prog indie'.
regardless, it's just really great instrumental stuff to trip on, relax to, do your math homework, etc.
MR. ESQ. SEZ: MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW.
FCC CLEAN.
SOUNDS LIKE: KRAUTROCK, RADIOHEAD, MY BLOODY VALENTINE, AIR, BLURRY, HAMMOCK, ENO, SIGUR ROS, SOMEONE I'M FORGETTING RIGHT NOW, ET AL.
PLAY: ANY/ALL/RANDOMEOW/GO COMEOWTOSE.
1. drifting in and out. vibey.
2. throbby, synthey, farty, krauty.
3. ticking, tocking, menacing.
4. PURR-FECT II: epic. in and out of stratospheres.
[PLAY 5&6 TOGETHER OR ALONE]
5. spoken excerpt: Christian deconstruction of 'Stairway To Heaven' and subliminal messages therein. fits well with...
6. this. playing back to back=good juxt (AC/DC chords -pick a chord, any chord.)
[PLAY 7 & 8 TOGETHER OR ALONE]
7. PURR-FECT(TIE): slow, throbby begin. menacey. religious and epic. bleeds into...
8. PURR-FECT(TIE):this. quiet, serene. sounds like crickets at first. actual vocals. beautiful. goes from soft begin to searing end.
9. pretty. building, epic.
10. smothered vocoder vox. sounds like something from 'A Clockwork Orange.' viddy well.
