- - - - -

The sound of Don is the sound of the natural world dissected and recombined. His work draws heavily from natural sound worlds, sampling and then refracting the sounds of real world environments, people, objects and natural settings.

The raw materials for “Coast” and “Hymn” were recorded on a field trip to the remote Pacific, where Don sampled the sounds of the people, flora and fauna of the Cook Islands. Those natural sounds fuse with musical samples and instrumental performance to form delicate and playful sonic meditations.

These two mesmerising soundscapes hum with electric energy.   Both "Coast" and "Hymn" are sonic explorations that are at once ambitious and sensitive, the product of an agile and rapidly expanding young mind.

Discovered while on Bandcamp safari. Agreeable shades of krautrock and 90s IDM and beautifully measured. This is the kind of release that encourages me to spend way too much time going down the Bandcamp rabbit hole. AJ.

I believe the last track was released as a single, and I remember listening to it while I had a terrible flu. It blew me away into a fever dream... in a good way? It was quite a somatic experience. I adore this album and recall the show at Knockdown Center a few years ago fondly. AD

A great collection of edits by DJ Plead. The fourth hidden track is an amazing flip of the Tunisian folk song Allah Allah Ya Baba, Svebbe
