The tugboat-like hums, bowed vibraphone and lead melodica of intro "The Possibility Of An Island" pushes us off to I'Ile De Sept Villes. "Bras D'Or Lakes"' unison vibes and literally off-beat strings gradually churn up the pace, as the next few tunes to follow are infused with driving, O'Hagan-esque bounciness, settling into a military march keeping with the send-off sentiment of "Your Band Doesn't Have The Legs I Thought It Would". Takoma fingerpicking then pairs up with warm, fuzzy keyboard pads on "Acadia Acadia", before closer "Soixante-Sept"'s slowburn, cinematic 4/4 funk. As accomplished a producer/arranger of these instrumentals as head Hylo Paul Aucoin is, though, it's especially impressive to witness all that mallet-pounding in person, so be sure to catch their in-store here at the shop on Tue.
