Tip! *300 copies limited edition* Andrew Hargreaves’ Tape Loop Orchestra makes his first mark of the year with a post-rock deep dive that continues the themes of his ‘Liminal Live’ (2020) tape.

’Temporal In-Between’ is presented as a conceptual soundtrack to a metaphysical road trip, ajourney through infinitely open space imbued with phantomatic energies”. Hand-in-hand with thecover art by collaborator Keith Ashcroft, the two-part record evokes its subject with a lesser-heard (as in, have we heard him do this before?) use of electric guitar and a patented grasp ofliminal, hypnagogic atmosphere to summon sustained arcs of phased chords and an almost wind-played motorik momentum that makes it feel like gliding over unlit moors at night.

The spirits of Eno & Fripp colour proceedings as TLO’s elliptical tape loop system accretes andunfurls its information in slow motion from the shimmering keys and guitar strokes of ‘Upsurge’,and its gorgeous transition to heart-in-mouth sensations, and the soothing plangency of ’SituatedPresence’, where signature choral motifs are found occluded by the atmosphere, parting thru theclouds occasionally, but more often pushed to the background, as though heard from a distancelike phosphorescent city lights spied from its meridian. More simply; dream food for fans of Romance, The Caretaker, Eno.
