Dutched at Swan Cleaners

Released

Gilmore has been associated with the “non-music” trend of recent times, which I don’t feel empowered to discuss, simply because I don’t know what isn’t music but I reckon it has something to do with intentionality. There are definitely a lot of stringed instruments here along with tons of room sounds and fireworks. How purposefully Gilmore is playing these instruments is beyond me but this is delightful, a bit like a truly zonked caroline track or some goofed up Jandek.
