slow-swords:

Picked this beauty up from the store a few weeks back (from the unbelievably perfect Bent Crayon, best store in the nation…). Was drawn in by the positively gorgeous artwork, and the fact that it was released on Steve Hauschildt’s own Gneiss Things import: it just had to be good, right?

Thankfully it was no let down. This is the first full length LP by Roger Tellier-Craig under the guise of Le Révélateur, after a cassette on Root Strata last year, and it’s truly mesmerizing from start to finish. Synth explorations that will melt yr mind, or something like that. Essentially, it sounds like the best record Tangerine Dream never released in their 70s heyday. That’s probably as succinct a description as I can give. Three long pieces that are never overbearing, just welcoming, as they draw you in with layers of warm synth.
