So has anyone heard Alog's "Red Shift Swing" on Rune Grammofon? I picked it up at Aquarius (SF) yesterday after reading a cover blurb describing it as a cross between Tortoise & Oval. Well, it's really nothing like that at all, but it is fucking phenomenal. Lo-fi ambiance with murmurs of free jazz percussion, looping bliss, all kinds of oddities. I've only gotten the chance for a couple of listens, so it's still pretty much indescribable -- but suffice to say I'm thoroughly captivated. philip
