In recent months I have seen the band The Moment of Nightfall mentioned frequently by folk who really know their stuff, none more so than Bay Area fog pop auteur Michael Ramos (Tony Jay/Flowertown). Imagine my delight then to learn of this collaboration between the two, a true match made in some kind of glacial heaven.
Ramos teamed up with the Tokyo based collective during his recent tour of Japan, and the resulting work radiates a deep, ethereal beauty. Lead tracks kori no mori (Ice Forest) and Tell Me Why ride gentle waves of ambient psychedelia, channeling the likes of The Velvet Underground, Yo La Tengo and Galaxie 500.
Winter Dream was recorded over two days, a ataggering fact considering the sheer depth of understanding and feeling displayed by the singers and players. Let this music stand as a testament to the sheer joy of like minded souls finding one another.
Winter Dream is released 29th November via KiliKiliVilla Records, you can pre-order vinyl, cassette or digital here.
thank you so much!
