After critical acclaim for his Commissioned work, Yann Novak and Dragon’s Eye Recordings are pleased to announce the release of Meadowsweet, Novak’s second full-length release and his first release of un-commissioned work. Meadowsweet is an exploration of field recordings and there relationship to their maker and listeners. Based loosely around the recent loss of his mother, Meadowsweet departs from rhythm altogether and focuses on beautiful and delicate drones, whispers of people, and environments once inhabited.

Piggybacking the haunted audio that can only be found deep in the chassis of an RCA radio to a series of cautious atmospheres, Novak teases out faint “rhythmic” ephemera that waft onto the soundstage like escaping argon gas.

Novak’s acutely aerated drones and exultant lulls attain a sublime state of bliss without descending into new-age kitsch. Within these transporting drones there fizz pointillist melodies that charm all the more for being submerged in digital cloudstuff.
