iTunes Review
Peaking Lights' sophomore album dives deeper into their already-heady indie dub-pop, taking even more risks that waver between disciplined song structure and unraveling psychedelic chaos. The glimmering “Synthy” starts 936 with a kaleidoscopic collage of lo-fi synthesizer tones that sway and bump into one another like windchimes moving over a big distorted bass. Under this, a minimal drum machine accompaniment nearly drowns in a sea of reverb. Fans of equally experimental luminaries like Sun Araw or Ducktails will find a warm and womblike familiarity throughout 936. At eight and a half minutes, “Marshmellow Yellow” is a kinetic patchwork of otherworldly noise rubbing against the grain of ever-changing organic sounds. Indra Dunis sings demurely over this hypnotic jam, sounding like one of the song’s instruments. “Birds of Paradise (Dub Version)” begs for bass-cranking—Aaron Coves bolsters a boomy beat to a deep, rumbling four-string mantra that drives the tune through vintage echo decks as jangling guitars and lazy melodica notes dance around like unattended children.
Customer Reviews
tickles the eardrum
get it b4 its too surface
It
...Velvet Underground vocals x Autechre x Lee Scratch Perry dub x Boards of Canada x Native American rhythms, vocalization and percussion x bits of My Life in the Bush of Ghosts (album). You may have to like a bit of repetition, echo/delay and a thing for electronica/sequencing. I'm trying to talk myself out of how good this album is. It's like nothing I've ever heard. Kind of a bold claim.
Tiger Eyes
Tiger Eyes is a hazy dream like composition which could be the best track and well worth a listening.
