REVIEWS

  • BLOW UP (IT)

    "Il suono rimane smarrito e imbambolato, una fluttuante immobilità giocata su colorazioni neutre e il dolce solletico di piccole onde che massaggiano placidamente l'apparato uditivo."

  • THE SILENT BALLET (.COM)

    "Northern is an essential record that sits with The Disintegration Loops and Pale Ravine as the Holy Trinity of Ambient"

  • SQUID'S EAR (.COM)

    "As compositions sound out tenuous themes and brittle near-melodies, Deupree inserts frigid and tense silences where they might not be expected, and extends certain passages longer than one might think they should go on."

  • TEXTURA (.ORG)

    "Consistent with such background detail, Northern's music emerges as a highly personalized portrait of long-form soundscaping that's generally subtly elegiac and wistful in tone."

  • TOKAFI (.COM)

    "A striking degree of "realness": A sonic volubility and emotive vulnerability which will be hard to follow up on."

  • VITAL WEEKLY (NL)

    "That sort of thing. Deupree's music belongs to the absolute top in the field of ambient glitch/microsound and this new version of Northern is another fine example."
