Weird Ear Records After having falling asleep to this album, I realized that the crescendo/change in the 3rd track triggered a momentous dream sequence that combined an almost shimmering earthquake that crumbled my room and left me on a prairie/meadow of sorts, which I adjusted to very quickly, as it tends to happen in dreams.... Favorite track: 5.3.

about

From the label:

"Following releases on Digitalis and Gift Tapes, #5 also continues the organic and thoughtful work of his duo Loud & Sad. Focused on tape loops, layers of delay, and some chordal forms, each piece is meticulously and methodically built, with each sonic element given its due. This sense of pacing and care given to every moment is a crucial element of McLaughlin’s work, and it’s deeply attuned here. The pieces reflect the environment in which they were composed, tight-knit and rural; they mass like storm clouds, and then are barely there, leaving just the fluttering of a distant echo. Stretches of silence, and windblown expanses. Rich chords swell into deeply contemplative passages that are gradually stripped away. A gorgeous, hushed set of tape music. An edition of 100, Pro-dubbed, imprinted cassettes with classic Notice attire."
