Nick Zammuto--formerly of The Books--has a new solo album on the way. As you may recall, I dug this dude's last full-length, so, of course, I'm looking forward to what he's going to be dishing up on this latest record of his. The title: Anchor. It's currently looking at a Sept. 2nd release date on Temporary Residence Limited.
"Great Equator" is a chilly, serene ballad with plenty of throbbing electronics hanging in the background. It's a track that subtly hypnotizes, but then it knocked me out of that funk with some jagged, angular synth melodies. The swelling instrumentation on the back end of the track is quite nice, too. Really psyched to see what sonic adventures Nick embarks on with this album!
