Jaroslav Kořán - Zahrada

Jaroslav Kořán
Zahrada
Infinite Expanse
Czech Republic/UK, 1992/2022
LP

Revenant home-recorded avant-garde wonder from the ‘90s Czech underground. Working at the fertile intersection of New Age and experimental musics, Kořán left the windows open to admit the sounds of birdsong and children playing, lending a drowsy afternoon atmosphere to his compositions for both conventional and homemade instruments. Anticipating the homespun acoustic ambient reveries of The Humble Bee and Andrew Chalk, Zahrada is an album as mysterious as it is easy to drift away with.
