about

In the end of 2009, the label released three EPs of the namesake milky analog love music that Milieu has become emblematic of since 2004. Reverb Microcoma was a fun set of carefree melodic electronic songs, intended to convey a laid-back attitude and more-obvious-than-not nods to several heavy musical influences.

"Naptime Singalong" was a catnap in Mrs. Jynx's colorful pastures. "Sunlighter" was a happy hug for Bochum Welt's "Hug Me Tight". "Coming Home" was a slowfade high-five to Casino Versus Japan. "Melted Radio Tape" was my fantasy of stealing a cassette from Freescha's sexed out 70's muscle car (for the record I don't even know if they have one). "Night Camera" was even recorded when Am-Boy visited to hang out and listen to my Jandek LPs, and bears some resemblance to his earlier works in its copious use of detuned flute melodies.

These three EPs quickly went out of print, off the map and under the radar, and the songs contained on them have since become some of my favorite Summer listening. In the spirit of supporting this music with a proper reissue, the original tracks have been combined and expanded with eight previously unreleased songs from that 2009 Summer, clocking in at almost exactly 80 minutes. This reissue should please listeners and collectors who missed out on the original EPs, as well as seasoned Milieu aficionados who will enjoy the colorful unreleased material collected here.

Additionally, this reissue is the second of several to appear in a new catalog subset called Arboreal Digest. This is #6 in the set, with other out of print/scarce Milieu and Coppice Halifax reissues following suit.
