I’ve been listening to a lot of music as I research for my albums of the year list and was impressed instantly by the album Centers by Ian William Craig. The album spans several genre whilst also having its own strong identity.

Although surrounded by harsh tracks inspired by elements of Noise music the track purpose (is no country)  adds contrast and a sweet release with the layering of his vocals exclusively to create a choral piece with heaps of ambiance. It’s a lovely track which suits this time of year perfectly:
