This morning started for me with a feeling of stillness. Trees outside the window was immobilized under dull overcast light. Very unusual silence for Monday morning.
I went searching for appropriate soundtrack for that moment and after passed over mail about new stereoscenic release I rejoiced to see a new album from Black Brunswicker. I recalled him imitatively because of his past album In the Age of Aristocracy which, first of all, rooted in my memory because of its outstanding cover art. I remember listening it last year and liking it, so it was a safe choice for my morning routine.
Wilder Paths have indeed very contemplative character that removes excessive worries of upcoming day and drawing attention towards observation of current environment like a painting in gallery, especially the view from the window. In the note for this album Ethan express his state of miss in isolation over his home in Evanston, Illinois and this is defiantly transmitted trough his compositions of slow guitar riffs accompanied by gentle bow movements sounding somewhat from faraway. His music in this way unobtrusively adding to existing sound ambiance and sounds of crows and rarely passing cars on wet asphalt just pertinently complement to listening experience.
