Lefuturewave Compares Dren McDonald To Steve Reich, Kronos Quartet, and Björk

“Dren McDonald’s new single,” writes Lefuturewave, “has a sonic similarity to Steve Reich, Kronos Quartet, and Björk. Its arrangement sounds amazing, highlighting multi-layered playing that’s constantly shifting. The vocals, provided by Carla Kihlstedt (of Sleepytime Gorilla Museum) and Amelie Anna, also captivate and help to further accentuate the creative direction throughout. Written as a tribute to Hardy Fox, the longtime creative force behind The Residents, the track honors both the legacy he left behind as well as the impact of losing someone important. The lyrics possess an indescribable sincerity.” You can find the review here.

The track – “Resting of Light” – is at radio now in advance of McDonald’s upcoming Vox Pterous LP.
