Mirrorring... Like Waking From A Slumber






















I have been listening to this a bunch during my slumber, and I think it is fitting. Mirrorring's first album, Foreign Bodies hits stores soon and is available now at Kranky (Click the link to order).


Mirrorring is Jesy Fortino, who has recorded under the Tiny Vipers moniker, and Liz Harris, better know as Grouper.

The recordings on this album came about through a songwriting session in Portland, Oregon.

The resulting sounds are contemplative, reflective, and introspective, creating a feeling as much as a song, a mood as much as a tune.

One could try to assess what part of the album each artist was responsible for, but that would prevent one from seeing the proverbial forest for the trees.

This sounds exactly as you might expect it to given the conspirators... great stuff.



Songs:

1. Fell Sound
2. Silent from Above
3. Cliffs
4. Drowning the Call
5. Mine
6. Mirror of our Sleeping
