About this item

Gi Gi returns to Quiet Time with a new album, "Dreamliner". His last full-length for Quiet Time, "Lumino Pleco", was built on familiar samples, melted into a skunky sludge. It evoked a heat-warped meditation cassette unearthed from a Goodwill located in a black hole. The Texas producer’s latest, "Dreamliner", is comparably immediate and propulsive. Here, Gi Gi explores spacey, kosmische-laced trip-hop. At first, these eight tracks come across placid and twinkly - calling to mind glitter stars twinkling atop a navy canvas, or tropical sun beams cutting through crystal water. But a jaggedness becomes apparent when lended a focused ear. Beneath slow motion arpeggiations and lullaby melodies, dubby percussion and sound effects gnash and quiver.

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Undulating arps and dreamscape navigation which recalls the interstellar dominance of Steve Moore or the shamanic rituals of High Wolf. Very nice.
