I still really love that first Wilderness record - although that particular track probably wouldn't be in my top 5 off it! Fly Further to See still makes me damn near levitate.

Agreed, though End of Freedom always felt the most powerful.

ahhh "boney m down" is great too. downtempo tropical disco.. the live (non-sampled) drums and the overall sound really set it apart from yer average cocktail lounge electronica stuff that clogs up today's bargain bins.

That whole album is great, why didn't I put it in my top 10 albums list upthread? I swear it was there... I think that was the actual album in there and not Devendra now that I think about it... I even bought it on vinyl and I only spend that amount of money on albums I love. Anyhoo... it's a very rewarding if you're patient or maybe high? I've never listened to it on drugs tbh... at any rate you have to be relaxed while listening to it. They do this trick almost in every track were they settle for a gorgeous loop with little variation and then they add layers of arrangements that change the whole mood of the track and sends it to outer space. I love their work as separate entities but I think this is the most concise album they've done together or apart.

I really liked that Fiery Furnaces grandma album at the time. I should listen to it again.
