Gorgeous lush ambient drone folk. Brilliantly treated acoustic guitar playing w/ warm dronescapes. A lush goo of processed croons, banjo, tape warbling, space, field recordings, acoustic folk with molasses slow song structure & drone influence. Transcendental treehouse solitude music w/ a rustic aquatic river vibe and emotional depth. From a split cassette on Bay Area Micro-Label Roll Over Rover, Tracks 1-4 are by Old Softy (Dave McPeters) and Tracks 5-9 are by Ugly Husbands. For fans of grouper, belong, atlas sound, low, eluvium, kranky. Play a track from each band. sonic relaxation genius sean mccann also involved. take note.


1-A fabulous escape to mountain solitude. Distant crooning, and lightly plucked guitar, with a warm billowing drone bass. Gives way to sounds of water.

2-The warmest low end you've ever heard, interwoven with vague translucent high pitch croons and pseudometallic shimmerings.

3-Acoustic guitar in the forefront for a slow ethereal croon through a fuzzy scape 4-Gorgeous warmdroneolky odyssey from the sunshine part, to a sparse, darker, heavier low end despaired place, then bliss through to ghost voice transcendence.

5-Soaring semi-grated bliss out noise pop.

6-Mysterious toy box twinkling gives way to a brilliant folk guitar trip down a river, to strange field of frogs and ghosts.

7-Aquatic pulsing bliss out swells

8-Celestial interlude w/ recordings of raindrops & mysterious opera singer

9-Winter music. Thick frozen building low end tone with a creaky doors, and so many subliminal mystery sounds. Wow.
