Bleep

Verse of Birds is Richard Skelton's fourth album under his own name and possibly the most concise vision of his music yet. Over the course of one hundred minutes he carefuly crafts out a delicately composed series of modern classical pieces composed of stringed instruments that are both beautiful to hear but at the core have an akin sadness. The way Skelton builds these tracks is both elegant but with a startling originality that is perfect listening for fans of Fennesz, Eno or Tim Hecker.
