David Tagg is up there running labels and making music with that Milieu dude (more on him soon...) and here's a CD by him called 'Waist Deep Seas Of Milk' on the Second Sun label. This is well warm sounding ambience.... certainly fans of Milieu will dig this....It's really quite melodic as well. For ambient music there's quite a lot going on though to most folks I suspect you'd think the whole thing sounded exactly the same from start to end. Like my dad for example who thinks whatever we play in the office is a shite racket whatever it is... it could be something like this, some weird electronics or some kick ass guitars music and he just thinks it's all gash. If it's not Neil cocking Diamond....I digress.... this is cool. Well worth checking out is this.... Sleepy floaty time gear which will soften her up for some good night time plumbing (can't believe I actually wrote that...)
Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
What their label says...
David showcases some of the most intricate and gentle guitar playing, equally faithful to traditional ambient composition and his own personal style. Performed completely live on two reel-to-reels at David's cozy home in New York, Waist Deep is totally deserving of it's title - slow-steeping chords ebb and flow at the speed of clouds, with the most harmonious, swooping leads that are just as soft and white. More evocative and sedating than all of his 21MG Series discs combined, and notably the next phase of Tagg's guitar-exploration after his Colors That Vibrate EP. Achingly beautiful and still, David has painted a panoramic scene of motionless, milky white surfaces with no ending or beginning, only comforting, ever-present and white, with beautiful photography by Luke Hazard and David himself. Limited to 100 copies.
