 * Dusted Reviews - Chris Watson *
Throughout, Watson is highly skilled at enabling the mind to move effortlessly between place and abstraction — at any moment one can click into the imagined specifics of an African rainstorm, or out again, to a wholly abstract collage of textured sounds.
Watson, on the other hand, seems to record from the very heart of the crevasse, and he captures the singing drone of the wind and the rumbling quake of the ice mass atop a lulling bed of flowing, polar water.
That Watson has channeled the essence of 10,000 years of climatic processes and countless square miles of melting ice onto a single shiny disc is impressive enough — that, shorn of any tangible bearings these sounds defy description, is sublime.
