inspired piece of chamber music lead mostly by
acoustic guitars or other guitars. These guitars have
a serious minimalistic genre related influence in
their picking evolution. Especially in the first half
there are also some cello, and more classical
arrangements. Elsewhere the accordion leads the
compositions or the slide guitar sets a slightly
different tone. The whole composition is very
alternated and sounds like a movie on its own. The
label mentions references of influences varying from
post-rock, the minimalism of Yann Thiersen, road movie
guitar music, alternative country and film music, with
some inspiration of Ionian Islands-influenced
balladry. All these aspects are somewhat vaguely
there, in its own new and splendid blend. Recommended!
