French musician Olivier Perez is slowly building an impressive catalog of melancholic folk songs with his Garciaphone project. The new album Dreameater never rises above a whisper - he mostly prefers brushes to keep the beat, and keyboards and acoustic guitar are the instruments of choice to enhance the melody - pointillism set to music.
You are kindly invited to explore the subdued intensity of A Hole In The Universe, the lure of pastoral Mourning Of The Day and the neo-psych of I'll Be A Riddle that could have been written by Jacco Gardner. Recommended if you like No Ninja Am I.
