Torn Hawk & Black Deer - Torn Hawk/Black Deer
The L.I.E.S. label, curated by Ron Morrelli, is known for its unique sound, which blends esoteric elements with dance music. The collaboration between Torn Hawk and Willie Burns, Torn Hawk/Black Deer (2013), features two tracks that exemplify the label's distinctive approach.
The first track, 'Apex Break,' incorporates elements of dusty house beats with a fluctuating melody, offering a dynamic listening experience. The second track, 'Warm Sprawl Shorter,' diverges significantly, presenting a 15-minute exploration that combines space disco, dub, and country influences.
While L.I.E.S. is traditionally a dance label, these tracks deviate from typical dance music, focusing instead on creativity and atmosphere. The listener experiences a sense of serenity and euphoria, with rich melodies and textures that evoke nostalgia and a carefree spirit. The collaboration showcases innovative approaches to "Lo-F" music, appealing to those seeking something different.
