United Waters - Your First Ever River (2011)


Your First Ever River simulates the experience of listening to a record while on opioids and submerged in a warm bath. Everything sounds warped, slowed-down, distant, arrhythmic, and drugged-out, but, all things considered, it's surprisingly accessible.

Track listing:
1. My Geology I-IV
2. Spires I
3. Platetectonics
4. Spires II
5. No End to Eyes
6. Statuary
7. Different Heavens

    1. Very strange. It's in my files folder, but the link doesn't work for me, either. I'm re-uploading right now, should be fixed momentarily. Thanks for the heads-up!

  3. Is anybody else having a problem with the link? The page doesn't want to load for me. Other Zippyshare links are working fine for me, though. Thanks as always DEAR_SPIRIT, you're always throwing cool and interesting stuff our way.

  4. What a marvelous drift. Sure this isn't some lost collaboration between Dean Wareham and Eno? Fantastic. Blessings and thanks.

  7. I've been obsessed with this album ever since I stumbled upon it a few weeks ago. Love how crisp the production is despite the several layers of lo-fi instrumentation. Sort of reminds me of Grizzly Bear's Horn of Plenty. I was wondering if you could recommend anything else similar to this?
