Years - Years

DO MAKE SAY THINK and BROKEN SOCIAL SCENE member OHAD BENCHETRIT casts his multi-instrumental talents and studio wizardry on Years, his first solo effort. The album is a soundtrack to the white water raft ride of time itself. “Kids Toy Love Affair” begins this instrumental album
with a wistful playfulness, before the listener is swept along a shimmering acoustic guitar stream with “Don't Let the Blind Go Deaf”. Definance is pitted against sombre track titles like “Are You Unloved?”, “Hey Cancer... Fuck You!”, and “The Assassination of Dow Jones” with music that is
anything but. Bursts of glitch interspersed with digitally sequenced orchestral arrangements build into rousing walls of sound that in turn subside to a gentle brook of acoustic guitar melody.
Ohad Benchetrit is a true visionary of composition soundscaping; his accomplished production and guitar proficiencies align him with the most respected in the field (i.e. DMST, Squarepusher, Jim O’Rourke / Gastr del Sol)

Ohad is a member of Do Make Say Think and Broken Social Scene, and has also contributed to albums by Feist (The Reminder) and The Hidden Cameras (Awoo)
