Description:
Andrew Thomas is one of the mainstays of Kompakt's ambient roster. His ability to evoke the beauty of his New Zealand countryside through music is a remarkable and compelling listening experience. Even more so, it is said he is a professional Frisbee champion! Dramatic and engrossing, his sophomore album Between Buildings & Trees is destined to be a benchmark effort to go in the annals paved by the likes of Wolfgang Voight/Gas, Fennesz, Vladislav Delay and William Basinski.
Released in a digipak.
Mastered in Aotearoa, New Zealand and Köln, Germany.
