The World On Higher Downs - Euclid/ A Muted Street Song

The World On Higher Downs is a four piece group (whose members include Eric Bray, also known for his Arctic Hospital on Narita), all of whom reside in different cities in Wisconsin, USA. What started out as a loose idea based upon multiple collaborations, eventually blossomed into what is now known as The World On Higher Downs. This 7”  features two tracks from their debut CD ‘Land Patterns’, released by Tokyo label Plop in May 2007. Initial listens spring up visions of Tortoise, Labradford, or Slowdive, but their music sits somewhere between the murky depths of seasonal depression, cabin fever, and the blooming first days of spring. It has an intellectual quality to it, but maintains a child-like innocence in the way many of its melodies flutter and the implementation of many pitched percussion instruments.  Limited to 333 copies.
