Royal Train - An Underwater Call / The Balcony Compositions























Royal Train - An Underwater Call / The Balcony Compositions

Two more albums here of excellent drone music. Both these albums are great examples of quite minimalistic ambient drone. 'An Underwater Call' is the deeper, quieter of the two where as 'The Balcony Compositions', just released, is much warmer and musical. Fans of both earlier and later Stars Of The Lid will most likely appreciate this music. Drone is not always an easy genre to get right but when its done well it can be very beautiful, relaxing and naturally draws you in. I feel 'The Balcony Compositions' does this particularly well.
