2004, Slowdance
Special low price! The Roots Of Orchis return with their masterwork, "Crooked Ceilings," an awe-inspiring double-CD. The first CD represents the band's ever-evolving sound, as turntables and samplers interact with rumbling bass and the band's headphone-friendly instrumentals. Breaching the boundaries between avant rock, instrumental hip-hop, and IDM, The Roots Of Orchis produce an atmospheric soundscape of focused rhythm and style. Their mixed-genre style appeals to fans of indie/post-rock groups such as Tortoise and The For Carnation as well as beat-based artists like DJ Shadow and Matmos. The second CD is a bonus disc of remixed and reinterpreted tracks from Controller 7 (Sage Francis, Themselves), Atair (Judah Nagler of THE VELVET TEEN), Pall Jenkins (singer of BLACKHEART PROCESSION), and more.
