Fort Fairfield - The Dead Sea Scrolls [AT003]
Marks the spot where the beat finally broke.
Trying to fuse together Edgar Allan Poe´s 40´s America with Paul Auster´s contemporary America.
Leaving the cut and paste esthetic in the backroom.
And letting out the more haunting sound of white noise electronica.
Fort Fairfield aim to put a sound to the gray side of things.
Released at Acustronica 16/01/2010.
