     This is the second bit of gorgeous ambient folk drone we've
     heard from Higuma, the duo of Barn Owl's Evan Caminiti and his
     musical partner Lisa McGee, after a criminally limited cd-r on
     Root Strata, sadly this lp is nearly as limited, only 250
     copies total, already sold out and out of print, except maybe
     for the 25 copies we have right now, which as you know means,
     be quick or be dead (dead as in, no Higuma for you, you wonÆt
     actually die, maybe).
     The sounds is much like you might expect from the Barn Owl /
     Elm / Caminiti and now Higuma axis, looooong tracks of dark
     windswept shimmer, dense brooding drones and epic abstract
     folk flecked drift.
     Clouds of processed guitar swirl ghostlike above buried
     rhythms, chant like vox, skeletal melodies, the sounds sprawl
     and smolder, occasionally building to drugged out Spacemen
     3-like soft cacophonies, but just as often melting into
     something more delicate and space-y with spidery psychedelic
     guitars blurred into distant swells, gongs and chimes, adding
     mysterious textures and overtones to the already gloriously
     murky and moody proceedings.
     The whole record is a delicate assemblage of whir and buzz and
     rumble, the sounds intertwined, smeared, layered into spectral
     space drone, but always remaining earthy and organic, not OF
     the stars, but earthbound and staring up INTO the stars, the
     sound of deep black night, dusted with starlight, all held at
     bay by the flicker and crackle of HigumaÆs slow burning
     dreamlike blurscapes.
     So gorgeous. Cool handscreened sleeves, original art by
     Caminiti, and again, 250 copies, out of print, and unavailable
     once these final copies are gone...
