Landing
With ‘Landing’ American sound artist Taylor Deupree offers another vision of subtle shifting audio. A progression from the full-length Northern (12K), Landing matches acoustic instruments across broad washes of warm sonic texture and floating spatial movement. Removed from the falling sheets of silent snow swelling outside his home, Deupree’s Landing creates a generous and temperate sonic environment – both reflective and
measured. An audio escape from chillier climes.
