2.2 s>?\ |qZ4h7wL Since their inception, High Places have created a signature
:x16N|z sound out of using bass-heavy yet crisp beats, lilting vocal
^#_@Kq%th melodies and syncopated rhythmic lines performed on folk
zR]l2zL3 percussion instruments, guitar duets turned into treated
jgukW7H samples, and percussive lines created from the manipulation of
5)mn household objects. The songwriting is expansive and fluid, all
t&-7AjS5 the while managing to be concise. High Places gravitate toward
m}8c.OJ>K` the organic over the electronic, and that natural aesthetic
LnM+,cBz adds warmth and intimacy to the recordings.
