The glass bottom boat of the cultural press
“duster”
Subdued music from two people and guests using quiet drums, guitar, vocals, and various keyboards. For the most part rather dreary atmospheres are created through slow, hanging notes and gentle strums. “Irato” and “The Motion Picture” manage to be a little more upbeat, but there’s still a moody air. Turn the lights down for this one and enjoy.
