For his fifth release on Odd John Records, Welsh experimental producer Chris Weeks takes on a new moniker: CWM marks the conflation of his two musical identities – the ambient work he does under his own name and the electronic side he explores as Kingbastard. Flashback Blues is an album about loss, the title referring to memories from the last months of his father’s life that would suddenly come upon him. The immersive, crackling textures paint a picture of this time, walls of strings and synths telling a moving tale, slow melodies and beautiful textures creating a spiritual feel.
