Music For Ice Storms, by Wicked Cities From A Distance
When the tree branches hold a great deal of weight with ice and snow, when the air seems almost too still for breathing, and when driving anywhere horrifies you, "Music For Ice Storms" is the remedy. This is music that serves you well if you'd just rather... not.
Though Wicked Cities From A Distance's prior two releases have explored the noisier side of ambient with both *Dual Portamento* and *Lodern*, "Music For Ice Storms" marks a return to the more relaxed, chill ambient roots. Always tinged with a slight edge of melancholy, this music is still perfect for a chill snow day.
