Boomkat:

 

Terekke herds his wooliest flock of ambient Improvisational Loops for Music From Memory following the cultishly-acclaimed Plant Age album for L.I.E.S.. This time he evaporates any trace of percussion to leave listeners wrapped up in billowing harmonic structures with a deeply meditative, almost anaesthetising effect set to resonate with a raft of new ears.

 
It’s perhaps not surprising that Matt Gardner a.k.a. Terekke conceived his second LP as an aid for yoga in the esoteric-functional style of those late ‘70s/early ’80s new age pioneers whose work is having such a strong effect on contemporary styles. As the original new age gear was crafted in response to emerging thoughts of AI consciousness, secular spirituality and as a means detach oneself from the capitalist reality of Reaganomics, in 2017, at the dog-end of capitalism, perhaps the need for this stuff is as great or greater than ever?
 
Unless you exclusively fxck with harsh noise or are a bit of a bastard, Improvisational Loops is almost guaranteed to melt your worries and soothe your mind, running the equivalent of a hot bath while simultaneously massaging your temples and holding a zoot to your lips so you don’t get the roach wet. Just bliss. It’s that good!
 
The samples sound lush.

Whoever's writing these things on Boomkat deserves a raise.

 

I do like the sounds though, all simple and lo-fi and feel like throwaways almost....even the track titles seeming to just be the random shit he called the .wavs. Need to hear what happens for 19 minutes in Nuwav2 before I consider buying the digital of this though :)

And so the Improvisational Loops release seems to be this one from his Bandcamp in part: Wav1 and Nuwav2 (guessing just Wav2 basically). Plus some other bits? I dunno. Never been into their stuff before so I'm just learning about all this.
