*LIMITED EDITION HAND-PACKAGED AND HAND NUMBERED 45 MINUTE CD FROM
STYRAX'S BVDUB ON HIS OWN QUIETUS IMPRINT* The fourth installment
in the much sought-after Quietus series, and once again it's label
head Brock Van Wey, aka Bvdub, on a supremely atmospheric, layered
tip. Each of the four tracks here clocks in at between ten and
twelve minutes, with similar motifs hanging and re-appearing
through each of the tracks. "Return to Tonglu" opens the set
immersed in the warm glow of classic ambience but soon unfurls to
unveil a padded rhythm section and a succession of warm tones and
samples that evolve and restructure through the following 12
minutes to almost narcotic effect. 'Always on the outside"
envelops itself in a cushioned bliss of textures, strings and
clipped vocal samples, sounding not unlike classic Seefeel,
Shuttle 358 or even, in places, Lifeforms-era FSOL. "The Road
Home" engineers a more digital percussive edge that plays off
against the sedate soundscaping, bringing a more broken, glitchy
feel to proceedings, but it's the ten minute closing track "It's
Too Late" that completely seals the deal with a gorgeously
delicate and self-restrained padded layering that's almost
modern-classical in places and again in line with those Shuttle
358 comparisons that so endeared us to the last release on this
label.
