walker yancey - i'm a teenage rice field
Walker Yancey has full attention on this gorgeous album titled I'm A Teenage Rice Field. The effortless flow between low-fi melodic ear diggers and gooey analog ambience has a full grin in this conscious receptor. The presentation of the record, all white, with out many indicators on side A or B, leaves only the drop of blood, as seen in the pictures, to quickly discern the A side. And with this sequence, I'm A Teenage Rice Field starts off with a preconditioning of thematic energy. This is quickly followed by a slow jangle from "Moon Pie". The heartbeat of rhythm, guitar and dream filled lyrical harmony sinks like peanuts in a coke bottle. This brings listeners to the longest selection on the album, "Wood Lit From Town Heights". Walker Yancey combining a droning background with a slow beat, samples and drifting electronics. This is also a cornerstone for the composition, illustrating depth and patience to all of the song writing. A pace maker to some extent...
