Tape - Milieu (2003)


Sad, sweet, fragmented instrumentals from a Swedish trio. Acoustic and electric guitars, chimes, melodica, organ, piano, saxophone, and more against a backdrop of fragmented, glitchy textures and field recordings.

(As many of you pointed out, my previous post of Luminarium actually linked to Milieu. This is because I had started out making a Luminarium post, but immediately decided I'd rather do Milieu, and forgot to change the title and artwork. Thankfully, the description works, give or take the part about saxophone, for both albums. Making a new post entirely to fix the URL. Thanks for letting me know.)

Track listing:
1. Oak Player
2. Sponge Chorus
3. Crippled Tree
4. Edisto
5. Golden Twig
6. Long Bell
7. Root Tattoo
8. Switchboard Fog

  3. If one puts on this record while watching officer involved shootings on YouTube, on mute, in super slowmo, on dope; if one does that...
