Fools Gold

Fools - Fools' Harp Vol.1 [MFM 047 NLD 2020 24-Bit FLAC]

Fools is Californian multi-instrumentalist Chris Bear, whose day job is as part of eclectic American indie band, Grizzly Bear. Fools' Harp Vol.1 marks his first proper solo outing into ambient electronics for Dutch label Music From Memory. You can also find Bear's work contributing to the 4AD compilation EP, Terrapin Station (Suite). Fools' Harp blends ambient sonics, percussion, moody drone and distant spacey synths into forty-two minutes of improvised dreamy space. Each piece is very different - enough to keep your interest,  the titles are much like those mid-eighties Japanese albums of the same genre, or maybe even our own Dif Juz - the overall feel is current and modern. This work was a joy to rip from a delightfully packaged album.
