April In The Orange


April In The Orange
When a River Meets The Sea
Sloow Tapes - CS 40


This is pure psychfolk nectar reflecting its alchemical light on sunbeams floating home! April In The Orange drift in and out hypnotic meditative passages of dreamtime magic, ageless folksongs with soft male/female vocals and drugged drones reverberating in diamond inner circles. Edition of 100 copies.

SOLD OUT

Edition of 100 copies cassette from this Michigan-based pastoral drone unit, with heavy/primitive beams of crunch dotted with singing percussion and tumbling acoustic reveries that would unite early American avant blues ala Loren Connors’ playing on the sides he cut with Kath Bloom and the baroque, circuitous acid folk of The Incredible String Band, Dr Strangely Strange, Roy Harper etc... April In The Orange take Flying Saucer Attack’s concept of ‘rural psychedelia’ and confuse it with drone settings and some great, lucid songwriting. (Volcanic Tongue)
