Labradford - Prazision LP (1993)


Previously on OPIUM HUM:
Labradford - E Luxo So (1999)

Hey kids! Guess what time it is! That's right: it's fucking late! You know what that means! It's time to stare down the void and see if it stares back, this time with help from Labradford. Evocative, slow-burning drone and dark, minimal post-rock. Listening to Prazision LP is akin to that feeling you get when you're exploring a dimly-lit alien planet after having crash-landed, slowly growing accustomed to the notion that you're never going to be able to return to your home planet and will die alone in a beautiful but barren expanse.

Track listing:
1. Listening in Depth
2. Accelerating on a Smoother Road
3. Splash Down
4. Disremembering
5. Experience the Gated Oscillator
6. Soft Return
7. Sliding Glass
8. C. of People
9. New Listening
10. Gratitude
11. Skyward with Motion
12. Everlast

Freeze time

Labradford - E Luxo So (1999)


Just read that Labradford's going to be working on new music for the first time in over a decade. Quite interested to see what they come up with. In the meantime, here's the record that got me into them. Expect chiming guitars, stately pianos, strings, clattering electronic percussion, and an overall vibe that lands somewhere between post-rock and ambient.

Track listing:
1. Recorded and Mixed at Sound of Music, Richmond, Va.
2. With John Morand and Assisted by Brian Hoffa
3. Dulcimers Played by Peter Neff, Strings Played
4. By Chris Johnston, Craig Markva, Jamie Evans
5. And Jonathan Morken. Photo Provided By
6. Leta O'Steen. Design Assistance by John Piper
