\ePJG# RBXoU'. 专辑介绍:
4Q>F4v` G!\xc Since their inception, High Places have created a signature
$W]bw#NH sound out of using bass-heavy yet crisp beats, lilting vocal
&u8c!;y$b melodies and syncopated rhythmic lines performed on folk
0 Yp;?p^ percussion instruments, guitar duets turned into treated
cF2/}m] samples, and percussive lines created from the manipulation of
J$;)TI household objects. The songwriting is expansive and fluid, all
<c#[.{A}s the while managing to be concise. High Places gravitate toward
wu')Q/v the organic over the electronic, and that natural aesthetic
@jHio\/_ adds warmth and intimacy to the recordings.
=Ug_1w TTpF m~?( High Places' self-titled debut was recorded by the band's Rob
0h#M)Ft Barber and Mary Pearson in their apartment in Brooklyn's Fort
;"Y6&YP< Greene neighborhood. They employed a wide variety of
_u$K Lqt/, instruments to make this album, ranging from the more
_3a
5/IZ traditional: 12 string guitar, banjo, shakers and rattles,
IJ;*N bass, bells and Kalimba; to the inventive: plastic bags,
s`RJl V mixing bowls, wood blocks and other common household objects.
W<"\hQI The album has a contemplative and organic lyrical tone
<h9\ A& emphasized by the themes of goodness manifested in nature,
N &=2 / hardship and wonder as necessities to human existence and
CN(4;-so) growth. Additionally, the idea of maturation and development
1#"Q' ,7 is further accented through the recurring mention of trees and
;!?K.,N:N their extending, enveloping braches.
