4-Track cassette styled “space pop”, heavily echo’ed off-key female vocs, simple synths, samples and tones. Trumpet and male vocs appear here and there adding contrast. Trippy stuff from woman who’s been around for 20+ years producing this kind of cool strangeness and has collaborated with the likes of Beck and Alan Sparhawk to name a few. For fans of all things 4AD, Tamaryn, Pocohaunted maybe.

1) (4:02) dreamy echoey solo vocal with sounds, tones, no beat, trippy
2) (0:32) brief synth tones
3) (5:08) simple casio beat w/ soaring psyche blues guitars, some trumpet too
4) (0:40) brief ambience
5) (4:36) trumpet led, soaring dramatic vocs
6) (0:50) chill
7) (3:15) downtempo casio beat w/ trumpets, male vocs join
8) (2:57) strange: w/ crowd cheering samples, echoed vocs, weird meander
9) (0:40) chill string/synth tones
10) (3:24) simple organs + vocs
11) (2:12) chill ambient synth
12) (5:37) epic toned, dreamy
13) (0:49) denser trippy brief synth
14) (5:06) “I’d love you forever but death gets in the way”, nice stuff, piano tones with creepiness
