Most people know of Twine as an incredibly talented duo, that create beautiful and haunting experimental music. I know at least half of Twine as the guy who once tacked all of my shoes and socks to the ceiling of my bedroom, also as the guy who used to fill the front seat of my car with rocks. He also hid pizza boxes in my bed. That’s why I’m continually impressed by the ability of Chad Mossholder and Greg Malcolm to produce mature, thoughtful and emotional music.
The music contained on the At Land EP continues the tradition of mildly discomforting and beautifully simple abstract music that Twine has become known for. The five tracks that make up the 44 minutes of this release provide a cohesive listening experience that is alternately emotional and quietly contemplative. Hissing dissonance and moody synths and strings characterize this release and help form an overall feeling of longing and isolation. At Land is a perfect candidate for eyes closed headphone listening, or for whenever you feel like pretending you’re in a David Lynch film (which should be most of the time.).
