On »Ghost Poems«, Jacob Long pushes layer upon top of layer, pressing cautious yet full-bodied kicks into finely textured surfaces, sampling everyday objects, alienating their sounds and thereby producing a beauty that makes you sit up and take notice early on in the year. Earthen Sea executes the Kranky formula quite perfectly, remains persistently in quiet realms and rolls over in a decidedly gentle manner with ponderous dub rolls and billowing chords that inevitably force contemplation.
