about

An analog tribute to the utopian promise of the original BC Ferries fleet and the island communities it served. Forty hypnotic minutes of abstract oceanics, 70's string machines, and pulsing PSA arps.

credits

released September 20, 2016

Recorded at Hotham Sound mobile studios, Victoria and Vancouver, 2015-16. Instruments: Korg Poly 61, Crumar Performer, Elektronika EM-25, Roland SH-01, Casiotone 701, Alesis MMT-8.

'...some seriously deep Electro-Ambient/New Age synth-jaunts, cinematic strolls & sleepy sleepwalkings for us all to get lost along its foggy coastlines in for weekends at a time. These moody beasts have all the scope of a rolling epic, with the subtlety of a clinical assessment reference book, and it's truly a powerful and mesmerizing balance to take in.' -CASSETTE GODS
