Ambient music with tuba and drums ... long slow passages where the tuba gets mutated by echoes, loops, and other effects. Heasley is a local chap (and Day of Noise vet) who's been doing this kind of stuff for years. Could possibly be called new age, but it's got a stranger attitude than that, and much less melody. Noise or ambient fans should give it a try.

1- Slow and patient. Features lots of grand melodic slowness, like the other tracks, but also many phases of experimentation -- smaller, curled tuba sounds, or more aggressive drumming. The last few minutes ar eespecially "out there."
2- VERY quiet start. Then, some slowly tuneful tuba with spirited drums. Lots of echo, an upbeat yet cavernous feel.
3- Slow grand start. Later, a slow tribal drum beat emerges.
4- The most tuneful one. After a tuba intro, some slowish jungle drumming and placid melody.
5- Spirited; the drums really get grooving. Tuneful, grand, with a light beat.
