Adrienne and Aaron Snow have been playing music together for several years. They started as a two-piece under the name May Landing, making pure, languid atmospheres of sound, almost entirely devoid of obvious structure. Deciding to add new dimensions to the music, Dick Baldwin and Daron Gardner were asked to join, and the word May was dropped from the band name. The result is Centrefuge, a 26 minute EP that retains the unworldly aura of their original lineup within a solid song framework.
To create this droney atmosphere, guitar and moog are used along with delay and other sound manipulations as soft male and female voices drown in the distance. The sounds whirl and revolve in volume and tone, creating a force that dizzies the listener and clears his or her mind. Movements of each song become separate, distinct chapters in a wistful daydream. With each listen, the import of their EP's title becomes more apparent.
