Awake
Mike Shiflet & High Aura’d
Awake
Boomkat Product Review:
The panoramas of 'Awake' open six captivating and plangent guitar scapes stirred up by prolific collaborator Mike Shiflet with John Kolodij a.k.a. High Aura'd for Type. Captured face-to-face - or rather face-to-amp - over the course of three days in Kolodji's Rhode Island studio, the improvised recordings were later edited together with sparse, pastoral field recordings to create the kind of densely woven sonic fabric that can support heavy heads on a journey. Coming from the same, great North American tradition of blown-out amp worship and feedback sculpture as Glenn Branca or Godspeed, but not beholden to it, 'Awake' transcends its roots to occupy frequency ranges and harmonics perhaps better associated with the electro-acoustic swells of Tim Hecker or more recent Barn Owl actions, divining a timelessly emotive spirit from its fog of white noise and textured overdrive. This is the kind of material that the Type label really made its name with, and another cherry-picked 40 minutes of disarmingly serene, beautifully layered bliss.
