Info:

Ambient Power Duo Anjous Sophomore Statement Continues In The Vein Of Their 2014 Debut, Unfurling A Full Hour Of Mesmeric Synthetic Drift And Veiled Melodic Undertow. Comprised Of Mark Nelson (of Pioneering Post-rock Experimentalists Labradford And Pan American) And Robert Donne (of Labradford, Aix Em Klemm, Cristal), The Group Work Largely In Long-form Suites Of Sound, Alternately Spacious And Dense. The New Lps Six Pieces Embrace Flux And Ambiguity: Drones Swell And Shudder, Hushed Currents Of Noise Glitch And Dissolve, Atmospheres Congeal And Liquify. As With The Participants Prior Projects, Anjou Evoke A Shadowed, Mysterious Mood, Variously Melancholy And Transcendent. The Album Is An Accumulation Of Craftsmanship And Experience, Blurred Forms Traced In Light And Fog.
