WAYNE ROBERT THOMAS レコード& CD

Review: Another collaborative effort from the consistently fascinating US ambient kings Past Inside The President, this time with Hendrix - not that one - and Wayne Robert Thomas, whose atmospheric guitar-led work has featured several times on the label before. If the average ambient album has its head in the clouds, this is more grounding, more gamboling in the fields perhaps than floating in the ether, with gentle flute and guitar giving the walls of synth sounds some perspective. That said, the closing track of the four, 'Retract R (Type K)', sizzles away like something by Growing or even Spaceman 3 left to fry in the sun. Magnificent stuff..

Review: Composed and recorded by Wayne Robert Thomas with an electric guitar at Stan Mikita's Donuts, Aurora, Indiana from October 2019 to August 2020. Design, layout and assemblage and christened by Sir Frizzell. Mastered and blessed at Schwebung Mastering (Germany) by Stephan Mathieu. Muted trombone by Ron-Robert Thompson on 'Just Be Patient With Me' Additional guitar by Andrew Bergman on 'Envoi' . "Love abounds in everything"
