The Letter E

EP

Tiger Style

A truly uplifting and beautiful CD that is nowhere near long enough. Four instrumentals crafted in talent, friendship, and a passion for making music. Similar at times to the lofty heights of Mogwai or the dynamics of Tristeza, the Letter E, a collaboration between members of Rex and June Of 44, holds rhythms that are completely their own. Managing to keep solid and steady while filling the room with a sense of weightlessness. Some mellow jazz licks licking up the spills of sorrow. Scratching at the heels of precious guitar whisperings and weavings. Delicate to a fault, I find no fault at all. The bass moves through a syncopated swimming pool, and you want to sing along, though there are no words. Close your eyes, drift along, make up your own.

Tiger Style, 149 Wooster St.,, 4th Floor, New York, NY 10012
