Big Ship, The - A Circle Is Forever (CD) | Mint (M) Mint (M)-

The Big Shipp developed guitar techniques and musical interests in tandem for over a decade of their young lives. The thirty-nine minutes of their debut LP A Circle Is Forever represent nine months of collaboration under the same roof - and the eternal love of fourteen years and counting. The duo’s home recordings channel the lush textures and genre-swallowing compositions of Eno or O’Rourke - roping together Fahey-esque fingerpicking, long-form Conrad-core drones, and multi-tracked guitar melodies. Their songs borrow Neu!’s driving minimalism, buttery psych from Jerry, Trey, & Duane, and Moog stratagems from any number of cosmic 70s synth-lords. Their meticulous productions layer more ambiences and obscured samples into the mix than is probably wise – resulting in tracks as thick with content as this very blurb is with referential bullshit.
