10. Danny Paul GrodySketch for Winter VI: Other States
I love altered tunings, and guitarists who use them like Michael Chapman, whose Train Songs album was great. To me, this is like a lost film soundtrack, full of soft beauty, powered by this overdriven electric guitar against found sounds and synths. It makes me think of this trip I did to the Joshua Tree National Park: I hadn’t known what was there, and I’d thought the Joshua Tree was just one tree! But walking in the high sierra, the quietest place I’d ever been, the idea of cars, planes, city noise, feeling so far away…there was this silence. This reminds me of that.
