Inca Ore

More out-there song sculptures from Oakland resident Eva Saelens, this time with a little added clarity and decipherability: tracks like 'Shine On' really underline the strong compositional instincts lurking beneath the cassette recorder fizz. 'Always Have You' opens the set in stripped down, phantasmagorical, lo-fi lullaby fashion, but the album soon accumulates grit with moments like 'Ruff Ridin' and the distorted, spiralling keys on 'Adventure Of Light', beckoning you down all manner of confusing pysch-fuzz avenues. After the economical, perfectly judged calm of the ghostly, Grouper-like 'Innocent', 'Hoop Dream' closes the album with a blast of glorious, exfoliating noise - great stuff from start to finish, this latest from Inca Ore is a more exposed and complete sounding package than her prior works. Recommended.
