Blessed waves of beautiful sounds build and decay into perfect
pieces of music. From opposing locations and opposing
approaches to drone, Ohio's Emeralds and LA's Quintana Roo
juxtapose themselves with skillful perfection. Emeralds' epic
synth composition 'Bubble Quiet Complication' marks the acts
first vinyl appearance, and possibly heaviest work to date. A
tribute to the sine waves of 70s, this massive grower
oscillates and progresses completely discretely; impossible to
follow and completely transcendental. Bass heavy subsonic
patterns work their way underneath the beauty, completely
proving and reinforcing this bands recent acclaim. Quintana
Roo (comprised of members of Robedoor, Pocahaunted, and
Changeling et al.) take a more natural/native approach to
their craft. A massive horn blasts marks a call to arms on
'Beheaded Dynasty'. Twinkling chimes and electric textures
help paint a natural base. Hand drums start the onward march
to oblivion, met along the way by a blessed to infinity bass
line building to an organic overload. In a numbered edition of
450 emerald green LPs with printed labels and proprinted
cardboard jackets with an insert all from the psyched psyche
of Devon Varmega.
