Revealing the somber underpinnings of his Loscil recordings, Scott Morgan
has given us Stases - A collection of drones based upon the backgrounds
of his work for Kranky Records, from 2001 to now.

Stases is textured, aqueous, warm and pleasingly rich in (often bright)
tonality giving it a deeper focus and alternate view into the corners of
Morgan's music. Seemingly so surrounding, submersive, and natural - that
it becomes easy to forget the complex overtones and flowing mixtures
involved in the creation of them. As with his previous releases, Stases
follows theme and concept giving further reference through its title
which means: "..a condition of balance among various forces; motionlessness".

For those new to Loscil, Stases can be an introduction to some of the many
elements that his music is comprised of - a show of depth, tone and life
present in all of his work.

For those already familiar.., it is a pleasant realization of his music
with many of the layers stripped away to reveal another experience, giving
clarity and removing the final form of what you already know.
