Lush ambient folk project of Tulsa’s Dylan Golden Aycock, who also runs Scissor Tail Records. Solo fingerpicked guitar, drone loops, peaceful field recordings, calming tape hiss. Serene and reverie-inducing, humble and cozy. Also look in KZSU’s library for his album Black Coral Sprig, which listening to is like dissolving into cool rain. Everything he does in this style is wonderful. RIYL William Tyler, Loren Connors, Elizabeth Cotten, Scott Tuma, Chuck Johnson. No words, no FCCs. Favorites: 2, 5, 7.
1. (3:14)—Softly buzzing, shimmering lo-fi guitar loops.
2. *(2:30)—Grainy, pretty guitar soli. Nice lively fingerpicking.
3. (6:40)—Raindrop-like tones poking through soft tape noise. Slow, lonely guitar bends.
4. (0:59)—Clear, deep, watery guitar.
5. *(2:18)—Grainy pedal steel, high fluttering synth.
6. (0:50)—Bouncy, light guitar fingerpicking loop.
7. *(9:23)—Peaceful, upbeat plucked guitar. Subtle evolution of secondary guitar parts.
8. (1:00)—Meandering melancholy guitar, reminiscent of Loren Connors’ Airs.
