This is music where the microscopic approaches the infinite, sounds sufficiently magnified and lingered on to reveal swirling unseen worlds. A universe where energy cannot be created or destroyed but only constantly transformed. That is to say, our own.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe duo of Michael Slyne \u0026amp; Russell Linder of New London, Connecticut, Bent Light plays improvisations that feel like transmissions. No coincidence that Slyne sometimes tunes in radio waves alongside tape loops, steel strings, pedal boards, and Russ’s pedal steel. Guitars sound metallic, human, cold, and warm. They ping and drone and warp and mourn. They’re at every known point in the stereo field. Human voices sound no less alien and no more, descending like the celluloid angels in that Denis Johnson story where two orderlies find themselves tripping at the drive-in movie theater amidst an unexpected swirl of snow. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt’s too beautiful what these guys do, so they let it all disintegrate. The dissolution is a part of it, continuation in another form. Edges fray, things fall apart. It’s painful and a little disconcerting, but that’s what matter does. You can always play it back—just don’t be surprised if it’s transformed again, your tracks snowed over, the bread crumbs eaten. At this scale, we’re all on our own, but at least in that we’re not alone.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=1872815501\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/tracklist=false\/artwork=small\/transparent=true\/\" seamless\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/memorywasterecs.bandcamp.com\/album\/the-daylight-is-ours\"\u003eThe Daylight Is Ours by Bent Light\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"Seasonal Work","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44006545686662,"sku":null,"price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/3874\/2150\/files\/Bent_Light_-_The_Daylight_Is_Ours.jpg?v=1779635798","url":"https:\/\/seasonalworkrecords.com\/products\/bent-light-the-daylight-is-ours","provider":"Seasonal Work","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
