Passenger Songs by Veins Full of Static
Following on from two concept heavy releases in 2018, VFOS’ 3rd offering is a series of vignettes loosely tied together by the sensation of travelling without moving, of drifting unmoored, of sweeping through crowds unnoticed. From seething minimal techno to soaring drones Passenger Songs is a journey spent slumped in the back seat with nothing in particular to think about, world hurtling by, of people and people's homes appearing and disappearing as if on a movie reel projected against the window. It’s not your world; you’re just passing through.

As the late great David Berman once sang:
"Songs build little rooms in time
And housed within the song's design
Is the ghost the host has left behind"
VFOS is a house haunted by some ghosts I'd like you to meet.
