The ever prolific ‘Children of the Drone’ have recently released the fourth in their series of on-going compilations. Culled from many hours of Mini-disc recordings, the content of this comp has been whittled down to eleven choice tracks.
Again the musicianship is outstanding – an organic blend of alt-folk that possess an enriched vibe that many strive for, but few achieve. It’s lovely that this type of music is out-there living ‘n’ breathing and not being confined to some dusty old LP or bound by the archaic notions of tradition that a lot of fellow folkies seem to desperately cling to.
By the look of their current recording rate (documented on the informative - ‘The Spring’ blog) I guess comp 5 is not that long away…
