about

Discovery can appear in many ways, most commonly unexpectedly. Looking for something in particular seems more difficult to find an actual pleasing result, but it is the accidents that present the most rewarding experiences. On a darkening afternoon last fall, I was purposelessly sifting through YouTube videos of songs, letting them play, walking away, and letting it shuffle on to different videos. After a few songs, the most familiar, beautiful melody appeared. It had a vintage quality, and reminded me of memories with its lo-fi, shoegaze sound. I recognized this song somehow, and checked to see what it was. It was 'Dreamcatcher' by Sad Souls, the artist name of Michigan-based Tom Auty. I didn't know Sad Souls, in fact it wasn't familiar at all, and after searching for a few minutes online, I discovered that it was actually very new, and had only been released recently. After finding the entire album for free download/donation on the artists' Bandcamp page, I listened to it over and over. The entire album had the same steady, drifted feel, and could have been made 20 years ago, or 2 months ago. Making a beautiful album is easy for a lot of musicians, but creating something that is so effortlessly timeless is unusual, and special.

哲学用語で『限りなきもの』という意味を持つアルバム名が示すように、遙か彼方まで無限に広がり、柔らかな音の波間をどこまでも漂い続ける、温かくドリーミーなアンビエンス作品が登場。今回の国内盤化が初のフィジカル・リリースとなる、米のSad SoulsことTom Autyがたった一人で生み出した本作は、柔らかに滲むギターのメロディアスなループをメインにした、アナログな温かみのある淡いサウンドスケープで、時に子守歌のように優しく包み込み、白昼夢をみるように安らかで甘美な心地をもたらします。切なく木霊し、儚く消え去る、その一曲一曲全てがかけがえのないものとなった、瑞々しくどこか懐かしさをも覚える美しい名作が生まれました!!!
