sbwy - shaman song
Wow, there is a lot to unpack here. “shaman song” by sbwy is an absolute journey of a track, so much so that there’s no way to grab everything on the first listen. “shaman song” doesn’t reveal its true shape until about two minutes in, but don’t disregard the buildup to that moment; these sounds are not plundered haphazardly, but rather are intricately placed, only to reveal their brilliance upon repeated listens. The one song that came to mind while listening to “shaman song” was actually Bibio’s “Saint Christopher”; while the melancholy madness spins around both works, neither artist loses sign of the track’s backbone. You can hear all of neuromanti over on Business Casual’s Bandcamp; as always, enjoy.
