I'm a relative newcomer to his music. I saw him live once at a Kranky Fesitival but remember being somewhat underwhelmed for some reason. It may have been it was so late (shit, it mustav been at least 9:00Pm) and I was already weary and Kranky-ed out from all the preceding acts of the evening.
Anyway, after reading the "A Closer Listen" reveiw site they gave his new one, "Konoyo" high marks so I grabbed that and an early one, "Virgins". Double Wow man!! Love em both. Tim, babe, where have you been all my life.
This is really high level, high quality beatless, atmospheric sounds. Sounds that can't be assimilated in one sitting, or two, or maybe even eight. I've listened to "Virgins" twice now and both times were a completely different experience for me. Very pleasurable to the ears and mind!
Those who know his music, can you give any recommendations on where to go next? Or, even another artist to explore in a similar vein? (I would prefer beat-less right now) I'm enjoying "Konoyo" right now as I type this. Some of this reminds me of Steve Tibbett's more atmospheric dreamy tape loop outings. More please!
TIA
best
Michael
