Shining Skull Breath by Jefre Cantu-Ledesma

Jefre Cantu-Ledesma: 'Shining Skull Breath' (Students Of Decay) At the other scale of the electronica divide is the school of drone/tone, challenging interuptions and molten frayed noise popularised by this imprint and host of practitioners out to put a kind of solidity and earthiness into this end of the caustic ambient template. Fans on Fennesz will identify with the layered levels of distortion, fuzzy edges and ocean storm events fizzing away at the heart of this collection. Some of the tracks ebb and flow, develop, float and almost teem with sonic possibilities, others hang in the ether while some just plain throb.

"Shining Skull Breath" documents the latest solo recordings by Root
Strata label head and founding Tarentel member Jefre Cantu-Ledesma.
 Those familiar with Jefre's recent solo outings, such as "The Garden
 of Forking Paths" and"Floating Weeds," will recognize the stunning,
 wistful, barely-there melodies which abound on those albums. However,
 this  time around these slow orbits of somber, evocative tone are
submerged in boiling vats of molten fuzz and static making for an
 increasingly dynamic and bewitching listen. This truly is brilliant, potent,
deep listening of the highest order.
