Peripetia by Derek Rogers
"New immersive works from recent L.A. transplant Derek Rogers - a name you'll most likely recognize. From mellow synth and/or guitar drift,
to understated minimalist melodicism augmented by environmental
recordings et al., mood and feeling are central here. One of the
finest headphone-appropriate albums I’ve laid ears (and head) to
recently, yes! Housed in 14x14cm envelopes with individually "drip
painted" cover bits - each one unique."
