Tracks

1. 1. Ward Lamp, Low and AmberA hospital ward lamp, low and amber. This is the first song where the drum machine comes in, and it's barely louder than a heartbeat.dream pop, synth ambient3:08
2. 2. Night Laundry Chute, Warm TowelsThe dryers hum a lullaby, so we let them. Tomas ran the tape through a real tumble dryer drum for the echo, and I wouldn't recommend it.lo-fi, bedroom pop4:07
3. 3. Clock Tower, Midnight Strikes SlowSlow chimes and pad swells, with one drum machine hit every four bars. We wanted it to feel like the hour itself was stretching out.slowcore, synth ambient3:35

7. 7. Lantern Boat, River FishingA lantern on the river, nothing else for miles. I sang this one lying on the floor.slowcore, bedroom pop3:11
8. 8. Lost Property Trolley, Platform NineThe trolley that collects forgotten umbrellas and scarves after the last train. It's a kind of love song to everything left behind.dream pop, shoegaze3:32
9. 9. Windmill at Midnight, Slow SailsSlow sails turning over dark fields, with a drum machine ticking like a clock. Imogen's pad does most of the work.synth ambient, shoegaze3:21
