  • They Say...

    Stil has one weakness: it's too short. There are four tracks on here that are equally intriguing, whether separated from one another or listened to in the album's entirety. But these compositions were designed to unfold over a long duration of time; too long to be documented on any sort of media. Stil focuses on the variations found in changes of minute sound loops layered one on top another, and the results are breathtaking. Warm sine waves that aren't glitched up to levels of pretentiousness are abundant, giving the notion of activity to what could otherwise be deemed frozen and static. And Stil can be deceptive if close listening isn't employed: the results are so subtle that they can lead to the notion that they're nothing but a bunch of stagnant drones carelessly looped together. But nothing could be further from the truth, as it's easily Taylor Deupree's finest, most beautifully executed release to date.
