Afvikling / Denmark / 2025 / 2CS
A massive two-hour journey across a double cassette, The Sky Opens serves as a sonic diary of seasonal displacement. While most find comfort in the summer heat, LF finds a particular kind of melancholy, using these recordings as a therapeutic tool to seek out "uplifting" sounds. Out of four hours of master tapes recorded during this period of isolation, these two hours represent the absolute peak of those sessions.
The result is a fragile, sprawling masterpiece of home-recorded ambient. Published by the Danish label Afvikling, the release carries a distinctively raw and honest character. It’s music that breathes with the imperfections of its own creation (lo-fi textures and melodic fragments that feel like watching light change in a quiet room). A profound, long-form experience for those who value the vulnerability and the unpolished beauty of the global tape underground.
