Sleep Good, Dream Dealer
posted January 29, 2015 #
I stumbled into the new album from Sleep Good, Dream Dealer, and I am instantly hook. It's ambient, dreamy and atmospheric but doesn't take the backseat when listening. It feels like part of a bigger world or story that hasn't been fully revealed.
I spoke with Sleep Good, aka Will Patterson, about the creation of the album and he had some wonderful insight to share:
Lastly, take note of Blackland Hall, a new recording studio put together by Mr. Patterson focused on doing sound work for films and recording bands.
So since Skyclimber I took off music for a couple years and worked in film as a sound designer. I worked for Terrence Malick on two new films thats he's putting out. I was inspired by the process and wanted to try to piece an album together like a film...So I recorded about 60 tracks over the span of a year with the idea that they could be like scenes. After that I whittled everything down and combined tracks to be this sort of musical sound track.The experience certainly shows with the new album. It is a wonderful creation and I hope this is not the last we hear of it. I know January is an early time to consider best creations for the year (the exhaustion of December's lists still lingers) but keep this one around for the next 12 months, I think it has serious staying power.
