Pieter Nooten & Michael Brook - Sleeps with the Fishes (1987)


Previously on OPIUM HUM:

Excellent one-off collaboration between Pieter Nooten (of Clan of Xymox) and ambient composer/guitarist Michael Brook. Drifting synths, mournful strings, murmured singing, heartbreaking songs. Very 4AD.

1. Several Times I
2. Searching
3. The Choice
4. After the Call
5. Finally II
6. Instrumental
7. Suddenly II
8. Suddenly I

10. Finally I
11. Several Times II
12. Equal Ways

  4. Been on a Michael Brook kick of late and just came across this one - cheers! Hybrid (with Eno and Daniel Lanois) is also excellent.
