about

Ambient music of a sort, but not the type that fades in and out. Instead, these narcotic loops, recorded on a park bench and processed in one take, are insistently present. Tam Lin draws inspiration from Tricky's 1996 side project 'Nearly God,' whose stupor-inducing loops are echoed in their track "stasis." Here, a short snippet loops for over seven minutes while subtle modulation draws out stabs of metallic colour. The result is intended to hold the listener in an addictive and unnerving stupor.

The second track, "almost there," is slightly more dynamic, with Tam Lin drawing out the resonances of another bench loop. The loop muddies and expand into a dark, smoky drone, eventually opening out into a warm resolution.

Tam Lin is the musical alias of artist and writer Tam Lines.
Mostly using hardware electronics, they produce eclectic sounds, including spacious ambience, fizzing beats, power electronics and processed field recordings.

This beautiful label is the source of the HR008 spillage. Sonics stripped of extraneous ornaments and supports, targeted between the margins of articulable sensation. Hard Return

Probably one of the most "Big Deals" as far as I know being a BC user. For a ridiculous price—four bucks—you get 40 awesome tracks under SP's signature with all its meaning. This compilation is a really MUST-HAVE. My favorite track has been chosen by pure randomness. Enjoy this gift! sjah83
