Album Review
Your Imaginary Friend
Reviewed 2017-07-21
Experimental drone, subtle hypnotic drones and tape loops. Argentinian artist, long time KZSU fave. All instrumental, chill, lovely organic sounds. Most likely recorded to tape, loops, analog.

1) (15:21) fades in quietly, an echoed drum with drone, a slow subtle build up with various tones, strings, very droney 2) (4:55) loops of strange percussive and slipping sounds, backwards? 3)* (15:21) low drone, this may be ultra slowed tape manipulation of some day to day sound, evolves to big hollow dark tones, like the bowels of an empty oil tanker deep within a cave, really great 4)* (5:23) a lush beautiful loop
