Reviews of Weather & Worn [12k2012]

The founder and owner of the acclaimed American ambient and experimental label, 12k, releases a limited 7″ transparent vinyl that will make all drone heads drool

Watery and expansive, these are a delight to listen to.

a breathtaking distillation of acoustic sound

A 23-minute, slowed-down work-over of “Worn” clears some elbow room to fully capitalize on an even sleepier pattern of repetition.

A whole life and endless stories are contained within this small space, just like a photographic snapshot can reveal an ocean of emotions.

is the kind of music normally produced on 12k the kind of music that should go to vinyl? I don’t think so, but these two lovely pieces, exactly four minutes each, prove me wrong.
