Reviews & Discussion

Rated 5/5
Review by skritchy Jan 25, 2006 (edited over 3 years ago)
There's more than just drones and glitches here. 'Haunt Me' is also awash in field recordings - snatches of conversation, the sounds of TVs from across the room, snippets of nature sounds. I read somewhere a review of this record that described it as "strong ambient" - perfectly apt for this record, since there is enough happening here to really capture the listener's attention, rather than functioning simply as background music. This is my favorite Tim Hecker release, much more captivating than the subsequent 'Radio Amor' album.
Rated 5/5

A truly sublime piece of sound. Guitar drones, glitches and bleeps melt into lush, liquid ambient soundscapes. The thematic of the sky appearing on the cover of the album is fully representative of the attitude of the music.
Rated 5/5
Review by sushiPhones Mar 02, 2004
Fragmented bits of guitar, slow, low chords, mixed with unobtrusive glitchiness equals one of the best ambient albums I've ever heard. Reminds me at times of a more fragmented version of Plotkin & Spybey's "A Peripheral Blur", or maybe Shuttle358 remixing Morricone.
