Drouillard’s most unfiltered and introspective record yet, an instrumental album drawn from the compelling musical landscapes that inspired him to begin creating music altogether. Emotion and abstraction being main driving forces behind the work, Dean set out to create recordings that felt like abstract expressionist paintings. Silence, mistakes and accidents all hold equal value to musical contributions, keeping the music human and vulnerable. The album begins with more accessible cinematic pieces, incorporating melody and moving harmony. As the album progresses the form becomes more open and abstract inviting the listener into a dreamlike state. The album was recorded and performed entirely by Drouillard with his atmospheric guitar in the forefront, with layers of pump organ, synth, percussion, bass, organ and voice creating often shapeless textures beneath.
