Druid Hills is the great foreshadowing of Stewart Walker's new album. A1: "Fernbank 1991" has gotta be the hittin'est dancefloor track Stewart has dropped in recent history. Big kicks, big snares, and then at the climax, a smear of hi-hat mosquitoes and echoing synthesizers collide with the windshield of the bass lead. "Foreshadowing" is like sitting in the dark and listening to an old woman tell a ghost story. Whispering in your ear, and then the sound of scissors. Immersive reverse pianos. The last track sounds like a real mute-unmute track, but there's a soul to be found in its Kraftwerkian rigidity. Or maybe in the melody which drizzles like rain on a sunny day.
