3 Songs For Ryan

"...sonic backdrop of a huge thunderstorm that rolled through Toronto 2 days ago."

Anything the wind brings in from Warren Hildebrand is a treat. Hopefully soon, some words I submitted elsewhere on Swung From The Branches will surface, but to paraphrase a bit: it seems that each year there's one album that can stop my clock and simply gravitate, and in 2010 it's been his.

Now 3 Songs For Ryan is as Warren says "easing" himself back into recording, after a summer without working equipment to do so. "Rain Falls" is as eased as they come, resting at a comfortable distance from the strobe-lit skies. This reintegration only lasts a moment before "Along" breaks through clouds with sudden flashing lights-esq zest. An outro to a piece all too brief, "Courtyard Summer" drops us off in calmer conditions, where all we can do is wait for more.
