Moments Worth Listening For

The hypnotic transition halfway through Man of Oran where the acoustic patterns lock into a steady, motorik-style rhythm.

The gentle layering of warm organ swells beneath the intricate fingerpicking on Parliament of Birds.

The sudden, bright clarity of the acoustic guitar entry on the brief, melodic oasis of The Green Cigar Kept Smiling.
