01 White Sleep
02 Dream Forever
03 Untitled
Enregistré dans des conditions qui créent une astmophère fantômatique, ce disque défie toute forme de catégorisation formelle, les morceaux arborent le cachetde l'ancien, quelque part entre le folklore d'Europe de l'Est et le drone... (à noter la reprise du "Dream Forever" des Dog Faced Hermans)
White Sleep was gone in a blink of an eye upon its release, but keep those eyes/ears open anyway. The diminished aural capacity of a lathe-cut record (pressed by the one and only Peter King out of New Zealand) lends its music a ghostly, tinny quality, which is perfect for Steven R. Smith?s work as Hala Strana. These three compositions combining multi-track recordings of live instruments with minidisk and boombox overdubs?conjure a dreamy symphonic swell that defies easy categorization. Beset with wheezing ambient tones and degraded surface noise, these mournful pieces (including a Dog Faced Hermans cover!) sound positively ancient and fall somewhere between Eastern European trad folk, the homemade primitive works of Harry Partch and the early noise drone of Velvet Underground.
