Brienz by Energy 2000
Recorded by brothers Ian and Taylor Robinson on a snowy day in Richmond's fan district on an old Yamaha Electone organ and a Fender Mustang through a Blues Jr. Slow ambient swells reminiscent of early Clientele sketches. Inspired by nostalgia for days spent traveling through Switzerland in summer 1998.
Inspired by long pan reverb, tremolo, delay, vintage amplification, 1960s-era Fender Mustang guitars, obscure surf rock, warm pad synth sounds, sci-fi radio shows from the early 1950s, still images captured on 70 mm Kodak Panatomic-X fine-grained 80 ASA b/w film, moon bounces, and the incredibly rich spectrum of emotion associated with attempting to comprehend the beautiful vastness of space.
