"But the modern drift is all I have."
Rightfully ushering in the month of December here on Both Sides is the snow flurry sound of
Efterklang, and rightfully ushering in the sound of Efterklang is a preview of their upcoming release, Magic Chairs, due out in February.
If I remember my Danish If I Googled correctly, Efterklang comes from the Danish word for remembrance or reverberation, and it couldn't be any more appropriate. For such an ambient sound, there's a powerful effect that lasts and mulls you over and over. Listening to this Copenhagen-based group ends up being both a current and retrospective experience that culminates into an almost meditative experience that leaves you in a space that's just spacey and dreamy.

Sara - Having said all of the above, I couldn't agree more about not being able to wait for Magic Chairs.
