FHS 195 – (The) Slowest Runner (In All The World)

June 26th, 2009

The Slowest Runner in All The World

I suppose you’d call Brooklyn’s (The) Slowest Runner (In All The World) a progressive rock/experimental/classical…. uhh… Well forget that, I’d call them the perfect soundtrack to an epic film. Consisting of guitar, bass, drums, piano, violin, cello, tape loops, vocals that are barely recognizable as human, and samples, they craft sweeping textures that will give you goosebumps. I found myself expecting to hear the wave of applause that normally follows a performance at the symphony. And the sounds of creaking floorboards should give you an idea of how delicately they approached their session!

Song List:

  1. Intro >
  2. Sea Swells
  3. 5 Violinsk
  4. Classical Slave >
  5. Interlude >
  6. Hares Hares
  7. This is Water
