about

Golden Town is a bewildering collection of sound pieces, one man's sonic journey through a series of waking dreams. This highly personal reckoning with the multidimensional depths of trance states finds expression in haunting microtonal soundscapes, hypnotic pattern layers, and other-worldly textures of exquisite beauty.

Listening to the tracks as a single hearing with headphones is highly advised.

from 7-page liner notes (pdf included in download):
“The fourteen individual pieces that comprise Golden Town are intended to stand on their own as individual works, but they are also meant to represent a larger, single-standing work. Like the formative experiences I had as a child, Golden Town came from an inner world where unoccupied places are best taken alone. As such, I find it to be a music that seems to work to its fullest potential in headphones, as it is a music that tends to resist integration in open-air environments and is lost altogether in the company of other sounds and distractions. I remember recording at my mother's house in Northboro, Massachusetts when I was still a teenager and looking out the window and watching the wind turn the leaves and the grass bright-side up, and in the isolation of my headphones I knew that someday I wanted my music to know something of that too.” --DS
