Notes from the artist:
“This work represents Dura on it’s constant trek into the future … new sonic spaces, textures and technologies. It is of course not without nods to the past as the sounds captured here reflect off aged surfaces that change with and around us. Bronze, wood, and tastefully insufficient bit-depth-sampling coalesce and reverberate in the spaces I literally grew up in.”
Reviews
“Almost absurdly beautiful new music in a soft underground (aka #softunderground) psych/folk/experimental style. No vocals, two side-long tracks; on side A, delicate acoustic guitar eventually emerges from long slow-river washes of electronics; on side B, both the guitar and the washes are on equal footing, blended and interwoven, almost as if one is triggering the other.”
